Raising money for

International Alert

Charity Registration No. 327553

For over 23 years, International Alert has been the UK’s leading peacebuilding charity working in Africa, Asia and the Caucasus. We support local communities that have been affected by violent conflict to improve their prospects for a peaceful future and at the same time, work with governments and other decision-makers (e.g. EC, UN, the African Union) to improve policy and practice.

When a war ends, the threat of violence doesn’t go away. And while insecurity remains, development work alone is not effective; you can build a school, but while children don’t feel safe they’ll be too afraid to attend. Only when there is peace, can a country take steps to lift itself out of poverty.

My story

Hello all!

A friend of mine has convinced me to run 10km through the streets of London for charity on the 12th July. We're running for International Alert, a charity which works to lay the foundations for lasting peace and security in communities affected by violent conflict. Check out their website to see more of what they do; http://www.international-alert.org/
Normally I would have been busy washing my hair...or cutting the grass, but this is a fantastic opportunity for me, with your help, to raise money for this incredible charity.

Training has started in earnest and I'd appreciate as much support as possible to give me that motivation to keep on running, and to find that last bit of energy that I know I'm going to need on the day!

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