My story

 

Hi all,

As you know I am a keen runner (and a glutton for punishment), and I have decided to take part in the Grand Union Canal Half Marathon which goes from Uxbridge all the way to Watford. There is more to running than doing a good time, so I thought I would raise money for a great local charity in Barnet into the bargain.

I have decided to raise a bit of cash for Resources for Autism which is a local charity based in Temple Fortune (near Golders Green in North London). It helps and supports people and their families with varying degrees of autism. Autism is a condition which, in all its forms and levels, affects how individuals see the world and how they relate to others, and can therefore have a profound affect on their lives and those closest to them. This charity helps give some support to those affected, enabling them to meet like-minded people and providing advice for everyday problems, as well as assisting families. The money I am raising will form part of the Mayor of Barnet's Charity Appeal for 2009/10.

Here comes the plug for Justgiving...concentrate!:
