Brighton Marathon 2010 · 18 April 2010 ·

Bees for Development believes in the power of bees to create sustainable livelihoods for people around the world. We make life better with bees, enable people to earn an income and increase biodiversity through nature-based beekeeping.

Story

This will be my final marathon.

I have said that before, but at 42, my knees are crumbling and I need new challenges. Ones that involve a bit more sitting.

I hope you will be able to make a donation, however small, to the Bees for Development Trust. They do fantastic work with bees and people in some of the poorest countries - promoting sustainable beekeeping to support livelihoods and conserve biodiversity.

I did think about running as a bee. Not pollen your leg - I thought it might create a bit of a buzz.
