Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

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.


I have recently taken up running in order to keep fit and have thoroughly enjoyed it due to the support of my fellow runners - Rhona, Catrina, Claire and Anna.  As I have enjoyed it so much I thought I would put it to good use by fund raising!

My choice was St Andrews Hospice and this is because Mum died in July of this year from bowel cancer.  As a family we had planned that she would spend some time in St Andrews Hospice but unfortunately she died before a bed was available. St. Andrews Hospice’s annual running costs are approximately £4.2M of which nearly £2.2M has to be raised each year from public donations. This is a weekly fundraising target of £42,000. Hence my reason to do my first Run for Charity!
