Hi everyone, as you may know, me and some colleagues from Middleton Lakes and the midlands team are running the Birmingham Half Marathon on 11 October 2009. This will be my first half marathon and though the training is going quite well, I need your extra encouragement to get me past the last few miles!

All proceeds will go towards the RSPB and directly help our work at Middleton Lakes and on the bigger picture such as our Stop Climate Chaos work!

So, thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. 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.
