Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. I am taking part in the London Marathon next year, and will be one of the youngest runners as I only turn 18 two weeks before the event. I am going to be running with my older brother and my Dad. To ensure my place however I have to raise £1500 for this amazing charity. So please, to help this charity continue its amazing work with deaf and blind people and to help me participate in an event I have wanted to do since I was 5, donate whatever you can!

Here's some ways your money can help:

£5- could buy a set of musical bells to help stimulate the tiniest amount of a deathblind child's hearing in music therapy.

£7.50- could pay for a deafblind child to experience sailing and feel the wind in their face on a SENSE holiday.

£10- could pay for a resonance board to stimulate a deafblind child's senses at playtime.

£15- could pay for a tactile book to develop a child's sense of sight and touch

£50- can fund a deafblind child's vital first assesment.

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.
