Story

Hi Everyone visting my page!!

I am running the 10k BRITISH RUN! On 12th July 2009. I have decided to run for the amazing charity of Action on Elder Abuse. This charity really touched my heart because of the amazing things it does. If you want to read more about the charity the webpage is http://www.elderabuse.org.uk. The charitys main priority is to protect, and prevent the abuse of older adults.

I am sure you have all seen the programmes on TV of the elderly in care homes being treated in apalling ways or even in the midst of their own homes- where they should feel at their most secure, so helping raise money for this charity can help prevent this with every penny I raise. Please remember the money raised is NOT for me, but for the CHARITY.

So I am asking you today to dig deep in those pockets of yours and please please sponsor me whether its £1 or £1,000,000,000! It goes to such an amazing cause and will be appreciated immensely.

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

Also, if you prefer to sponsor by cash just private message me!

ThAnK YoU SoOoOoO MuCh!!!
