Raising money for Action for Children

Charity Registration No. 1097940

Action for Children meets the needs of the children and young people who most need support to achieve their full potential. Through our work and through speaking out, we seek to break the cycle of deprivation. We challenge injustice and empower children to overcome the obstacles in their lives that hold them back. We tailor our work to local circumstances, in partnership with children and young people, families, communities and local organisations.Charity Registration No. 1097940

I am delighted that I managed to complete the race in 55 mins & 45 seconds - well within my one hour target! J

I was greeted at the start line by thunder, lightning and torrential rain - althougha as we got under way this settled down to a light drizzle, which wasn't too bad. The low point was being overtaken on a hill by one runner pushing a pram - the high point was sprinting down the home straight to pick up 6 places!

Thanks to everyone who sponsored me - I have raised over £410 via the justgiving site (including gift aid) and a further, very generous £250 has been donated by Hymans Robertson - actuaries to the Action for Children pension scheme. I now hope to add to this with £500 of matched funding from LTSB and, potentially, some additional sponsorship from the Two Castles race organisers - Rotary International.
