Nick Loughran is raising money for The Art Room
Donations cannot currently be made to this page

Virgin London Marathon 2012 · 22 April 2012 ·

The Art Room works with over 500 children each week in socially deprived areas of the UK. Using art as therapy we offer respite from the difficulties they face. We help them reengage with their education and support them in gaining confidence and independence as they learn and achieve through art.

Story

<p>Hi everyone,</p> <p>As some of you might have heard, I'll be running the London marathon and I need your help. I'll do the running (all 26 miles) if you promise to sponsor me a few pounds to help me along. It's as simple as that!</p> <p>So long as everything goes to plan in the next few weeks, I'll run the marathon in sub four hours (3 hrs 45 mins is&nbsp;my target but I don't want to get carried away!)&nbsp;and raise a lot of money for the Art Room in the process. The Art Room is a fantastic charity that works with children to increase their self-esteem, self-confidence and independence through art and I know they'd really appreciate any support you can offer.</p> <p>Just so you know, I don't plan to run any more marathons so don't hold your sponsorship back for next time!</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Nick</p>
