Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

For some reason, I have decided it's a good idea to enter the Bath Half Marathon. Having never run more than 10K previously, and gradually losing mobility in my knees from years of football, what better way to spend my time than by running over 20K!? To make it all worthwhile and to provide the necessary motivation to put in the training over the coming winter months, I have decided to raise money for The Mango Tree, so anything you can spare would be very much appreciated. For anyone not familiar with The Mango Tree, please visit their website http://www.themangotree.org/ to get an insight into the truly remarkable work they are doing to help AIDS orphans in Africa. As you should know by now, and is described below, the donation process is quick and easy and it means you never actually have to hand me any cash, so I will not be tempted to spend it in the pub.

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.
