Story

<p><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">I&nbsp;</span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">am pleased and excited to be running the London Marathon this year for Cambridge House, a brilliant charity working in Southwark offering a number of services to alleviate the local effects of poverty and support social change.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">Within their disability service they provide a programme called 19 Plus, this is a day centre that uses innovative methods for local adults with moderate to severe learning disabilities to develop their social and life skills. </span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">For people who have difficulty expressing themselves verbally, art is an important aid to communication. This being the case, there is a strong focus on the making and the use of visual imagery at 19Plus.&nbsp; Please take a look at some of the pictures on my page of the work they have created and shows they have put on &ndash; for a more indepth look please see&nbsp;<a href="http://www.ch1889.org/disability/">#mce_temp_url#</a>&nbsp;where you will also find links to their own blog!</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">19Plus are just one of the many reasons I want to raise as much money as possible for Cambridge House and I need your help to achieve this!</span><span style="font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer.&nbsp;</span></span><span style="font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">So please dig deep and donate now.</span></span><span style="font-size: 9pt; font-family: Arial;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">Thanks for your support</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial;">Theunis</span></span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
