My story

THANKYOU TO EVERYONE FOR YOUR GENEROUS DONATIONS!!

Thank you for visiting this page dedicated to Evie Caragher.  

The 'Evie Caragher Fund' will be used by Winston's Wish to help bereaved children in their time of greatest need.

Evie was a beautiful vivacious cheeky little girl from Cheltenham who died in a tragic accident on the 18th April 2011 aged only 3.

Winston's Wish is a charity dedicated to providing support and counselling to the families of bereaved child such as Evie's 7 year old sister.

On 22nd April 2012, 4 days after the anniversary of Evie's death I ran the London Marathon in a time of 3:19:22. The run was dedidcated to her memory.  She was a spirited child with the energy of 100 marathon runners!

I am looking to double the amount already raised in July last year when  Evie's father Brendan, Susannah Jenkin and I raised over £3000 pounds running the British 10k race.  

Training for the marathon was the most challenging thing I have ever undertaken and your generous support made each step easier!

If anyone visiting this page knew Evie and would like to be involved in any future fund raising in her memory using this site please contact me.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
