Royal Parks Half Marathon 2010 · 10 October 2010 ·

Refuge opened the world’s first refuge in West London in 1971. We support thousands of women & children every day, experiencing domestic and sexual violence, female genital mutilation, forced marriage, stalking, trafficking, prostitution & so-called ‘honour’ based violence.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.

This will be my first half marathon on the 10th October, starting at Hyde Park- eeeek!!! Hopefully leading on to a full marathon next year, so please keep me motivated in my training and support me through donating as much as you can. The more I get, the harder ill work, I promise!

My charity of choice is Refuge. The reason I have chosen this charity is because of the amazing work they do to encourage and support women and children, helping them to regain control of their lives and move forwards in a positive way

The money that you help me to raise will go towards.....

Funding refuges; places where women can be sure they are safe, and where they can access emotional and practical support from staff who understand what they have been through

A 24 hour helpline, operated seven days a week

Outreach services to continually help the women and children once they leave the refuge

I will keep you updated on my training and am so grateful for anything you can give.
