Story

We will be 79 and 77 years of age at the time of the Bristol Half Marathon on 17th September. Our plan to run the Bristol Half Marathon started last December in Nebraska (USA) where it was so cold we started to run a little to keep warm. Since coming home at the end of December we have kept it up and set ourselves a training programme, gradually building up our mileage and time. Our dream is to raise money to help fight poverty and hunger around the world and to help people like Yasmin.

Yasmin lives in Chad, in a part of Africa where an estimated 5.9 million children will suffer from acute malnutrition in 2016. One in five children here don’t make it to their fifth birthday. This is a crisis.

We're fundraising for Tearfund to help make sure families like Yasmin's can survive and go on to live secure and fulfilled lives. Please sponsor us to help tackle extreme hunger:

- Every £5 we raise can help a child like Yasmin get a nutritious meal every day for a month.
- Every £10 we raise can provide a family with sustainable agricultural training, to grow enough food and earn a secure livelihood.

Together, we can change the world for children like Yasmin. Read more of her story at www.tearfund.org/meetyasmin
