My story

 

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Foyle Hospice 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!

Hi Folks,

Yes, we are running the London Marathon this year.  Can we just say a feat not to be underestimated?  As we approach half way through training, our collective thoughts say ‘never again’.  We have no social life.  For weeks on end, we have been either preparing for long runs or recovering.  However, we are raising money for the Foyle Hospice so some good has to come out of pain and agony.  As I’m sure everyone will agree, the Foyle Hospice has to be one of the most worthwhile causes out there. Everybody has a story either directly or indirectly they can relate to.  So folks, we are raising money to support the fantastic work they do.  

 

Give generously folks.  Most of us have experienced the loss of a loved one through cancer.  We’re RUNNING THIS IN MEMORY OF CHARLIE      

Lots of Love, Andrea and Marina   xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
