Story

Thank you for even getting this far!!!

 

So my aim is to raise £1200 for a charity called the Sailors Society - the charity is not very well known and does not probably pull on the usual heart strings that most people donate to.  It is a charity that works closely with seamen to support them in a variety of ways, be it helping them whilst they are offshore, providing support when they have bad news or helping them readjust to life when they stop working offshore. 

 

These people live a hard life that can mean months seperated from their families and friends.  Their jobs can be dangerous and difficult. 

 

More information about the charity can be found at www.sailors-society.org

 

I know that we are all feeling the pinch right now but i would be very greatful of any donation, in return you can laugh at the fact that whilst you are donating i am probably pounding the streets of gosport in order to try and get fit to be able to endure 26.2 miles of hell!!!

 

Thank you in advance for being so generous

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.
