Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Three years ago we lost our first daughter, Cara, to Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalus.  It was a terrible time for both Nancy and I but with the help of our families, friends and ASBAH (Association for Spina Bifida & Hydrocephalus) we managed to make it through.

Both Nancy and I ran the Great Manchester Run two years ago in aid of ASBAH and I've decided to get my shorts and trainers on again for this year's Great South Run in Portsmouth.  Nancy will be looking after our second daughter Eve whilst they cheer me around the course. 

The run is this weekend (on Sunday), it's a 10 mile run and I 'm asking you to wipe the dust from your piggy banks, look in the back of your sock drawer and pull out all of your change (and notes hopefully) and donate some money to a fantastic charity.  Here's the official paragraph coming up. . . .

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.  Oh and if you know anyone who might be interested in donating please feel free to forward this link on - If I can hit my £500 target that would be great.

Many Many Thanks

Simon, Nancy & Eve xxx
