Story

<p><span style="color: #3366ff;">Hello lovely people!</span></p> <p><span style="color: #3366ff;">I am running Brighton Half on 19th Feb to raise money for a project I'm involved with this year. It is an AMAZING cause so get your wallet out you generous individual and read on...</span></p> <p><span style="color: #3366ff;">I am on the committee for this year's Nepal visit with HPN. We are a charity run by medical students at St Georges, with a link to a Nepali medical school. Each year, with the help of many lovely volunteering Drs, nurses and the Nepali students, we run surgical camps and provide medical support in existing rural healh posts - basically offering free healthcare to those who would otherwise be unable to access it. </span></p> <p><span style="color: #3366ff;">Our work is almost entirely supported by fundraising, and <strong>every little helps</strong>. Your donation will be going towards things like medical supplies and equipment to enable us to treat illnesses</span><span style="color: #3366ff;"> and carry out surgical procedures</span><span style="color: #3366ff;"> that these people really need. So <strong>please feel generous and give a few pennies/pounds</strong> for me to will myself up some hills in Brighton on what will doubtless be a cold and windy Sunday. I even promise pictures of my red face/ridiculously yellow jacket combo!</span></p> <p><span style="color: #3366ff;"><span style="color: #993366;">Love lots</span> and thank you!!</span></p> <p><span style="color: #3366ff;">K xxx</span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
