Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

I have decided to up my personal ante for this one - I know I'm no runner, but I've done 10k and half marathons... Walking however, that I can do! I have completed a number of walking events with the Air Cadets over the years, but nothing of this magnitude so I'm looking to push myself further in every way.

I have a very young son who spent some time in the neonatal department of our local hospital and, seeing the children in there made me realise just how much care and support children with complex health needs require. The children that are admitted to GOSH are in need of even more support so I am hoping to raise as much money as possible to allow them to receive that support.
