Thank you so much for visiting my fundraising page. I will be running the London Marathon for Mencap on Sunday, 26th April 2009. Please sponsor me online, and don't forget to add Gift Aid if you are a UK taxpayer.

I have chosen to run for Mencap having learnt a lot about the organisation, and about the lives of people with learning disabilities and their carers, through a review I carried out as part of my role as a councillor on Haringey Council. You can learn more about the charity by reading the information below and by visiting www.mencap.org.uk.

The official bit:

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Mencap 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, and ask your friends to sponsor me too by adding a link to this page on your Facebook page and/or as the signature on your email! Please also look out for fundraising events that I will be organising, and if you can, come along to support me on race day!

Thanks in advance for your support.

Emma
