My story

 

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Unfortunately I haven't yet got a photo of me struggling in my training, but no doubt someone will take a lovely picture of me finishing the Great North Run, looking hot and sweaty and in pain.

I have left setting up my web page until quite late as I have previously trained for the GNR twice and had to pull out through injury.  This time with 12 days to go fingers crossed!

I choose a charity that provides education to children in Africa, particularly in countries that are affected by war.  I believe that education gives people a chance to change their lives and that everyone should have access to education.

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.
