My story

 

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On 4 October I will attempt to complete the Loch Ness Marathon. I have never run this far before and the thought is a bit daunting. My goal is to enjoy the day and spot Nessie, probably at mile 20 just as exhaustion sets in and I become delirious.

I'm raising funds for the PDSA. The PDSA was my mother’s choice charity and is the UK's leading veterinary charity providing care for more than 350,000 pet patients. This year PDSA will provide more than 1.8 million free treatments to sick and injured pets and more than 200,000 preventive treatments.

I'd be very grateful if you'd consider sponsoring me – many thanks.

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.
