HoverAid

Charity Registration No. 1005977

HoverAid hovercraft reach remote rural communities in the developing world, enabling aid, development, relief, and church organisations to reach people who are otherwise completely inaccessible. It's a vital link, bringing hope to communities along shallow rivers, through swamps, and during floods; transporting doctors, enabling education programmes, and supporting local initiatives.

My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm running in the Coventry Half Marathon which takes place on 25th October 2009 and Jacob is running in the Mercia Mile which is held on the same day/place. All the money raised will be going to HoverAid - you can find out more about this great charity by clicking on their link.

Having never run further than my secondary school's 'bog trot' cross country run this is going to be a real challenge and I've put on a few pounds since then! So spur us both on with your generous donations!

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.
