Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>This October i'm going to attempt my first marathon - running over 26 miles between two continents in Istanbul! &nbsp;Training has started and is going to be a long, hard slog.... running up to 50 miles a week!! &nbsp;I only started running 18 months ago and only have little legs... so, please please support me :-)</p> <p>Project Peru is an entirely voluntarily run charity that supports various projects in the shanty towns of Lima, including a refuge for 40 children. &nbsp;For more information visit www.project-peru.org.uk.</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>
