My story

 
My name is Diggy Patel.  I am a very active young man.  I am lucky that I am able to play sports such as football.    Playing sport makes me fit, healthy, confident and empowered.  

Unfortunately, there are many in our society who are unable to experience the benefits of participating in sport as a result of having a disability.   That is why I have become involved in Get Kids Going which aims to assist disabled children participate in sport by providing sports wheelchairs.  This enables children to experience the thrill of taking part in many sports.   The provision of wheelchairs are used not just for sport.   The wheelchairs are used at home, going to school and to meet friends; in other words the day to day activities that we all take for granted.  

I am therefore running the New York Marathon on 5 November 2006 to raise as much as money as possible for Get Kids Going.  I would be very grateful if you could take this opportunity to support Get Kids Going by making a donation to them. 

Many thanks.
