Time was 1 hour 55 minutes and 20 seconds!   

Not bad for my first attempt.  Neil beat me by 7 seconds - can't believe it!   

Thank you everyone who has donated to the charity - it really means a lot to us - every penny we receive goes straight out to Ethiopia with no UK overheads!

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.   I am running my first ever half-marathon on Sunday and aiming to run it in less than 2 hours. ( I am also aiming to beat my husband Neil!)  We are raising money towards our own charity set up in 2005 to help the rural villages in the Simien Mountains of Ethiopia.

Our Mission is to help break the poverty cycle in rural Ethiopia by financing community projects to improve health, infrastructure, agriculture and education so that communities become self sufficient. 

Enable Ethiopia has come a long way in just a few years.  So far we have built 23 water points and just completed a brand new beacon school.  Please see video below;

All this has happened through hard work, much determination and the very generous donations from all our supporters. 

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 help make a difference and donate now.

Wish me luck!
