My story

Thanks to everyone for sponsoring me for the Albert Kennedy Trust. I didn't manage to run it in less than the 50 minutes that I hoped to do, but my brother, who knows about running, did warn me that would be a tall order. However, I did 51:40 which I'm still pleased about, considering a couple of 20-somethings I was running with were only minutes ahead of me.

If you haven't sponsored me yet and still want to do so, this site is still open so feel free! I still hope to reach £450, which would be the equivalent of 25 nights of support for a young person. Any amount you can give would be very welcome.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Albert Kennedy Trust 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.

Thanks again,

Barry xx
