Thank you to everyone for supporting me and The Lions Hospice - it is really appreciated - Thank You

After years of talking about it I will be running the Flora London Marathon on 13th April this year - 26 miles but at least with the knowledge I won't get lost!!

I have been awarded with a Gold Bond Place on The Lions Hospice Team and I am running to raise as much money as I can to support them because of the fantastic work that these people do.  I have experienced this first hand when my mother-in-law Joan Mills was cared for in the last weeks of her life.

The Hospice relies solely on charity and it costs loads to keep it going so please dig deep this is 26 gruelling, long miles not a walk in the park!!

Please come and cheer me on on the day - my running number is 41208 (I'll be at the back!!!)


Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Lions Hospice will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.   Phil
