Tim Maltman Runs 2010 London Marathon

Tim Maltman is raising money for LAM Action
Donations cannot currently be made to this page

Virgin London Marathon 2010 · 25 April 2010 ·

Lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) is a rare lung disease that only occurs in women. It affects just over one woman in a million. We are a self-help group providing support for patients with LAM and raise money for vital research - it is often difficult to obtain money for research into a rare disease.

Story

Hi Everyone,

On Sunday 25th April 2010 I will be running in my first ever (quite possibly my last too) marathon in London. The training has started, therefore so has the fundraising and by putting this page together I am asking you donate whatever you can to my chosen charity, LAM Action. 

Lymphangioleiomyomatosis or LAM is a seriously rare and incurable condtion that only occurs in women, generally of childbearing age, gradually destroying lung tissue which progressively erodes lung function.

I'm running for LAM Action as my Auntie Louise has bravely battled with the condition for many years; running 26 miles is the very least I can do to help play my part and make a contribution. By running the marathon I hope to raise a sizeable and vital dontation to aid research and the work LAM do in supporting patients, whilst increasing awareness to others at the same time. 

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.
