Flora London Marathon 2009 · 26 April 2009 ·

ChildLine is the UK's free and confidential, 24 hour helpline for children in distress or danger. Trained volunteer counsellors comfort, advise, support and protect children and young people who may feel they have nowhere else to turn. Children call ChildLine about a wide range of problems, but the most common problems are abuse (both sexual and physical), bullying, serious family tensions, worries about friends' welfare and teenage pregnancy. Children and young people can call ChildLine about anything – no problem is too big or too small. ChildLine is a service provided by the NSPCC

Story

Last year i raised £1800 by pledging to do the London marathon but 12 days before the race I was diagnosed with a dicky ticker.  They had the technology and they have rebuilt me.  This year Towner 2.0 WILL complete the marathon.

I am aiming to add a further £1800 onto the money from last year with your help.  I am raising money for Childline who are unable to answer a third of the calls children make due to lack of resources.

Here's what your money will get...........

£4 could ensure that, when a child plucks up the courage to ask someone for help,  ChildLine is there to answer their call. 

£42 could pay for a child who may have nowhere else to turn to receive confidential, one to one counselling about any issue that's important to them.  

£1,600 could recruit and train a volunteer ChildLine counsellor, who in their first year will be able to help up to 200 children through their worries and distress.

  

If you have sponsored me, thankyou very much.

Thanks

Chris
