Having conquered (?!) the heady heights of the Great Wall of China last year, my challenge for this year is a little closer to home - the Great North Run - a half marathon 'up north'. I have been training hard and am looking forward to the day. However I am also running to raise funds for charity. CLIC Sargent is my nominated charity again this year. Your donations make all the difference - here are a few examples of how the money helps:
£1.50: puts cancer and leukaemia into words that young children can understand, in a set of three colourful storybooks written especially for children under 10
£20: helps buy several blood sample kids that CLIC Sargent Nurses can use on a home visit, saving a family making a round trip to hospital for a simple blood test
£65: will provide half a day's professional training for one of our care staff. This will ensure they are equipped to help children with cancer and their families, whatever it takes.
£200: funds a CLIC Sargent Care Grant which helps families with the extra costs of caring for a very sick child.Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
