My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

To read more about the adventures of Joey the little trooper please go to my website www.joeythelittletrooper.com

In 2013 I will be taking part in the Marathon Des Sables, a 250km ultra marathon across the desert on Morocco to raise money for Blind Veterans UK. As part of my training I will be running a marathon or ultra marathon each month.

Please feel free to come and join the support crew during my made runs and anything you can donate is much apprecaited to change the life of a blind veteran.

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.
