Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. 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. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p> <p>I'm running the 2012 London Marathon for a fantastic charity called RAPt (the Rehabilitation for Addicted Prisoners Trust). This particular charity works to help people with drug and alcohol dependence, both in prison and in the community, move towards, achieve and maintain positive and fulfilling drug-free and crime- free lives.</p> <p>In 1992 RAPt founded the first drug treatment facility in a UK prison. To day they are the leading provider of intensive, abstinence- based drug and alcohol rehabilitation programmes in UK prisons, and they provide high-quality drug and alcohol services to over 13,000 people every year within the criminal justice system and in the community.</p> <p><span style="font-size: 12px; color: #004a4a;"> <p style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.391em; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-left: 0px;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: 17px; line-height: 24px;">As you can see this is a well worth-while charity and being asked to run 26 miles in order to support it is an honour so please donate- no matter how little or large every donation counts!!</span></span></span></p> <p style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.391em; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-left: 0px;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: 17px; line-height: 24px;">See you at the finish line!</span></span></span></p> <p style="font-size: 12px; line-height: 1.391em; margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 20px; margin-left: 0px;"><span style="color: #000000; font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: 20px; line-height: 28px;">Thomas.</span></span></p> </span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
