My story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page!

Despite being plagued by injury so far this year, I did manage to achieve a new personal best for 10 km and am looking to complete another personal achievement on 11 Oct when I run the Royal Parks Half Marathon - the furthest I have run so far! The Royal Parks Half passes through many of London's parks, including Hyde Park, St. James' Park, Green Park and Kensington Gardens. Please feel free to come and support me on the day!

This year, I have decided to run for Tusk Trust, a charity that funds conservation projects and community development programmes across Africa, including 5 projects in Botswana, a country I fell in love with in 2008. As many of you know, conservation of African wildlife is a subject very close to my heart and a cause I strongly believe in. Please give generously - it will mean a lot to me personally, Tusk Trust and the wildlife of Africa!!

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

So please sponsor me now!
