I will be running the Great North Run on Sunday 19th September 2010 for the National Rheumatoid Arthritis Society - NRAS.  NRAS provides support, information and advocacy for people with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), their families, friends and carers.  My wife Heather Johnson has RA and I would like to help NRAS continue in the outstanding work they do for patients, carers and families.  RA is a chronic, progressive and disabling auto-immune disease affecting 0.8% of the UK adult population. 

Thank you for your valuable support.  It is much appreciated.

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.
