Story

Hi 

I will be running the London Marathon in April 2013 for Bridge2Aid, a charity that first came to my attention just over 4 years ago when I first started working for FMC (a dental publishing house). Over the years I have seen what a good cause it is and seen other girls and guys from my company contribute in the fundraising, so I feel it is now my time.

Bridge2Aid is the UK’s fastest growing UK dental charity working in developing nations.

More than 70% of the world's population have no access to the simplest of dental pain relief, leaving billions to face a daily battle with pain in the toughest of life circumstances.

Bridge2Aid was founded as a response to this terrifying problem, by providing access to dental pain relief and to help the millions of people suffering in the developing world. 

I have always wanted to run the marathon so what better way than to do it whilst raising money for a worthy charity.

Thanks in advance for your donation.

Cheers

James
