Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

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.

As most of you know I spend a great deal of time 'training' - either running, swimming or participating in classes at the gym! Darren (very kindly!) entered me in the ballot for the 2013 London Marathon - I didn't get a place but the seed was sewn and I really wanted to run!

I've decided to run for this small charity because I think it is a very worthy cause and pre-eclampsia is something that most of us are aware of having had children of our own.

My target is to raise £1,250 - £500 will provide 50 hours of helpline support for women worried about pre-eclampsia, £750 will train 10 midwives specifically in identifying pre-eclampsia.

All donations however big or small would be greatly appreciated - thank you!

So please dig deep and donate now.
