Great Scottish run · 6 September 2009

Across the UK, 5.8 million unpaid carers support loved ones who are older, disabled, or seriously ill. Carers UK provides essential advice, information, and support while campaigning to transform understanding and win critical developments in carers’ rights.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.  There is still plenty of time to donate to my page if you wish. 

That's it all over for another year.  It was a great day for running.  Cool and drizzly at times.  Perfect!

I was aiming for under 1 hour 50 minutes if possible and managed to finish in 1 hour 49 mins and 29 secs.  Just made it then.  Delighted with that time though.

Thanks to everyone who supported me by sponsoring me on behalf of Carers Scotland. 

I can recommend the Great Scottish Run.  Great atmosphere at the beginning if a bit short on support from spectators nearer the end where it was needed.  The pipers, drummers etc were all wonderful and kept our spirits up.

Thank you again from me and from carers who will benefit from our efforts.

 

Carers provide unpaid care by looking after an ill, frail or disabled family member, friend or partner.  

Carers give so much to society yet as a consequence of caring, they experience ill health, poverty and discrimination.

 

Carers Scotland is an organisation of carers fighting to end this injustice.  We will not stop campaigning until people recognise the true value of carers’ contribution to society and carers get the practical, financial and emotional support they need.

 

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.

So please dig deep and donate now.

Thank you very much.
