Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>This year I am running Sheffield Half Marathon in Aid of the <h2 style="border-image: initial; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; font-size: 23px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; color: #248ac8 !important; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left; padding: 0px; margin: 0px; border: 0px initial initial;">Seve Ballesteros Foundation supporting Cancer Research UK</h2> </p> <p>I have chosen this charity for two reasons firstly on a personal note I will be running in memory of my wife's late grandmother <strong>Beryl Shaw</strong> who sadly died in September 2011 after a short battle with brain cancer. Beryl was a wonderful lady and as fit as a fiddle until she was diagnosed with a brain tumour in April '11. To see her deteriorate at such a rate was very hard to take on all her family and friends, so I am running in her memory. We all miss her!</p> <p>I have chosen the <strong>Seve Ballesteros Foundation</strong> as he was my sporting idol as a child and a true 'great'. Who was also taken from us trajically after his battle with brain cancer.</p> <p><strong>Please give generously as this is a wonderful charity. All proceeds raised will go towards high-quality brain cancer research carried out by leading scientists for Cancer Research UK.</strong></p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p><span style="color: #248ac8; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 23px; text-align: left;">So please dig deep and donate now.</span></p> <p>Thank you!<br> <strong>Chris</strong> x</p>
