If you've ever had to make a decision who to do a sponsored event for, you’ll know just how difficult it is. There’s just so many people need our help; so many worthwhile charities, all doubtless only able to do a fraction of the work they'd like to. Many of us choose a charity that deals with something we’ve experienced personally, but this time I've chosen something that, thankfully hasn't. In the five minutes or so it's taken me to type this passage over 75 children have died. That's so shocking that's why this time we are running for Feed the Children. Please, please dig deep and donate now.

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.
