My story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. 

Well, I made it!  It was very, very tough. The hardest thing I have done.  At halfway my back started to play up and the rest of the run was murder.  The support that everybody has given me was crucial in helping to encourage me to keep going.  Thank you!

I am raising money for Wooden Spoon, a charity that supports disadvantaged children and young people.  Recent examples of the work of Wooden Spoon include the funding of an adolescent care area at the Acorn's Childrens' Hospice in Birmingham, building a community website for teenage cancer sufferers and contributing to the Princess Royal Young Carer's Fund.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Wooden Spoon 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 for this great cause!  Thank you.
