My story

 

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

As unbelieveable as it sounds, I have decided to run the Manchester 10K.  I've got a lot of hard work to do and a couple of stone to lose in the process but I am determined to do it!! 

I've decided to try and raise some money in the process for a fantastic, local charity called The Wellspring.

The Wellspring are based in Stocport and do a terrific amount of good work within the community.

It is a resource centre for homeless and disadvantaged people and is dependant on donations from the general public, businesses, schools and churches.  Donations of food, clothing, bedding, or toiletries and financial donations are always needed.  

The Wellspring provides numerous services and everything is completely free of charge.   They actively engages with homeless people, providing advice and support as well as referrals into housing or supported accommodation.   Health services are also available as there is a PCT Nurse is on site who can address any health problems. 

The Wellspring makes referrals to the community drugs and alcohol teams & will strive to get people some appropriate support to overcome any addiction.  They even provides Maths & English courses and many members have gained qualifications up to GCSE level.

The Wellspring has over 170 Volunteers who mainly work in the kitchen at the project providing free meals and drinks 365 days a year.  


Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Wellspring (Stockport) 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!

The Wellspring is a very good cause and always needs help especially with the brilliant new building being built. Donation by Denise 05/05/09
