Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page!</p> <p><strong>A bit about me: </strong>I got my London Marathon place through the public ballot so I thought that, as I'm doing the marathon anyway, why not raise some cash for a worthy local charity at the same time?</p> <p><strong>A bit about the Charity: </strong>Ormiston are based in Eastern England and are very active in Suffolk,&nbsp;providing&nbsp;young people with opportunites and resources that , due to their circumstances, they would not have access to.&nbsp; This allows them chances&nbsp;to&nbsp;improve the quality of their life and hopefully succeed against the odds.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;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&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p>
