I am Ryan Jones, I am 19 years old and im currently studying a painting and decorating course at Barry College.  

I would like to support the Joshua foundation which is a charity that offers terminally ill children (upto the age of 19) the chance to complete their life dreams. All money raised for the charity goes towards making the children's lives the best, the Joshua foundation arranges special trips for the children and their families and all sorts of other experiences that are requested for by the children.

I will be participating in a sponsored 10 mile Santa Dash on the 11th Of December 2009 at Cardiff Bay! And I need YOUR help to raise money for the Joshua Foundation, so if you are like me and you want to give terminally ill children their final chance to fulfill their life dreams then, PLEASE sponsor me. Any donations are suitable but I do ask you to donate generously please, as the money is extremely important for the charity.  

The money that you donate will be used to provide lifetime experiences, including sending these children and their families on a magical adventure to meet the real Santa in Lapland where they can enjoy a trip full of excitement taking sleigh rides with Rudolf, riding with huskies and on snowmobiles and playing in the snow! The children get to meet Santas helpers and tell Santa their hopes and dreams, forgetting about their pain and suffering for a day. At a cost of £1,500 per family and a waiting list to go, we need to raise as much funds as possible to make this incredible experience a reality.
