WellChild

Charity Registration No. 289600

WellChild is the national charity for sick children and provides practical help for children and their families as they deal with serious illness and complex conditions. Funded solely by the people of the UK, for more than 30 years, WellChild has been instrumental in saving the lives of thousands of sick children across a range of conditions covering the three key areas of:

Care - WellChild has created a team of WellChild Children's Nurses who work with sick children and their families in the community to give care and practical support to children living at home with complex care needs.

Support - To provide practical and tangible support to young people and families, WellChild has created its Helping Hands scheme which enlists the practical support of volunteers right across the country to tackle one-off projects in the homes of sick children.

Research - WellChild's dedication to helping sick children both now and in the future is shown by the charity's investment of more than £20 million in life-changing and ground-breaking children's health research projects.

My story

Firstly, thank you for visiting our fundraising page for Well Child the official charity for the 2007 London Marathon.

We are 2 Bluefin Consultants who want to raise as much money as we can for a great cause. To justify the generous donations we hoped to receive, we agreed last August to put our bodies on the line to run the Flora London Marathon 2007. We trained hard in all weathers for the big day on April 22nd and were really spurred on by all your kind donations. Sadly a few weeks beforehand Henry suffered ankle ligament damage which prevented him from taking part. He will instead carry his place over to the 2008 marathon.

Hugh completed the race on what turned out to be the hottest marathon day in the 27 year history of the event. His time was 5:24:50 and he finished 28,247 out of 35,669 finishers. Around 36,500 took part with over 5000 requiring medical treatment along the way!

Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou to all who have kindly supported us and wellchild along the way.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: WellChild will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

Many thanks again for your support.

Hugh & Henry
