Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am destined to do the Great North Run and I thought I would also raise some funds for the Forget-Me-Not Trust, a charity who are building a Children's Hospice in West Yorkshire.

Those who know me will have seen that I am not built like a runner, so all the more reason that this is worth giving a few quid! I have done the event a few times before, though I usually give them time to re-surface the course before I enter again! This time I have followed an on-line training programme, though late in the day I discovered 'trainforthegreatnorthrun.com' can easily be mistaken for 'trainforthegreatnorthpieeatingcontest.com'. Never mind, I'll do my best.

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.
