My story

Hello

Last year was so much fun, I'm running 26 miles up Mount Snowdon again to raise money for Jospice. This time I've decided to do it aged 40 (not much choice there), with just a few weeks of training and a dodgy knee.

But it's not all about me. Jospice still needs over £4 a minute just to keep going. And this year the recession is worse. So we're all suffering in one way or another. But places like Jospice are there to ease suffering and the need for them doesn't go away. For Jospice, and the families that rely on them, the help they give is priceless. Other charity's may have to reforecast their ambitious plans for growth next year - Jospice just needs to keep going.

So, you know the drill by now...

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.

Thanks a lot.
