My story

Hi everyone,

For the second time in as many years, I'm doing the Run to the Beat half-marathon round Greenwich for charity.

This time I'll be running all 13 of those long miles for The Promise, a really great charity working with Russian orphans which my Mum works for. They raise money to fund Portage workers who spend time in the orphanages every day doing structured play with children to provide early education to mainly disabled children who have been left out of the state system in Russia. The change that this can bring about in the children is amazing to see.

To find out more details, go to the website below:

So any donations, big or small, that you can make through this page are welcome.

Thanks

Steve
