My story

 

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page!

I must be mad but was thrilled to have got a place in the Flora London Marathon on April 26th 2009 running for Ovacome. After losing my great friend and sister in law Philie to ovarian cancer in March 2008 I decided to do something positive and try and raise as much money as I can for this very worthy cause.  

This will be  my first and probably last marathon (you don't think I will be doing this more than once do you??!!)  and so I am counting on your support to really make a difference!  Please don't feel you have to give more than you can afford because any amount big or small would be truly appreciated and will DEFINATELY help me over the finishing line!

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Ovacome gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now and thank you for your support!! (Please come and visit me when I have my knees replaced!!)

Love

Alison  xxx
