Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

When I recently photographed Samia Smith, who plays Maria in Coronation Street, as she was promoting this walk, she convinced me that I should join in too. And why not? I refuse to run the Manchester 10k but I'm sure I can manage to walk the distance even if I should be in bed at this time!

I like supporting East Cheshire Hospice and all they do and they need to raise a staggering £6,000 per day to keep running, so please do support this worthy cause.

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.
