Virgin London Marathon 2012 · 22 April 2012 ·

We’re the 10 million people living with arthritis in the UK. The carers, researchers and healthcare professionals. The family, friends and fundraisers. United by a clear vision: a future free from arthritis. One in which no one is limited by the pain, fatigue and isolation that arthritis can cause.

Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.</p> <p>&nbsp;Vanessa (mum &amp; very nearly 50!) and Sophie (daughter &amp; a mere 21!) are hoping to complete the London Marathon on 22nd April.</p> <p>Arthritis is a horrible disease that does not receive the funding that is so desperately needed. We are trying to do our bit and are asking for your help.</p> <p>Watching a loved one suffer with arthritis makes you feel incredibly helpless and by running the London Marathon it is our way of 'doing our bit'.</p> <p>Training is well under way now and it hurts!</p> <p>Please,please help us to help find a cure for arthritis.</p> <p>Thank you so much,</p> <p>Vanessa &amp; Sophie xx</p> <p>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.
