Believe it or not (but believe it) I have decided to run the Virgin London Marathon in April 2010 and the Adidas Half-Marathon in March 2010 for the Evelina Children's Hospital.

 

Rather than hit people up for cash for each event I am doing both the Marathon and the seperate Half-Marathon for the one charity so you get to dish double the punishment for the price of one donation, please remember to "Gift Aid" your donation so the charity gets more money.  The charity is the Evelina Children's Hospital at St Guy's and St Thomas' and being a children's hospital I think enough said, I don't need to explain the benefit they bring, but if you want more information below about them then read on.

 

The Evelina Hosptial – who are they?

The Evelina Children's Hospital, at Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust, provides everything from routine care to life saving treatment for over 100,000 children every year. It is “a hospital that doesn’t feel like a hospital” and includes intensive care, neurology, and specialist heart and kidney units. Patients come from London, Southern England and much further a field for life threatening illnesses. While the children receive world-class care and treatment, NHS funding can not meet all the hospital’s needs. This is where the Evelina Children's Hospital Appeal steps in by raising money to buy the very best equipment and facilities.
