Virgin London Marathon 2012 · 22 April 2012 ·

Ronald McDonald House UK helps families with children in hospital stay close by providing free accommodation just minutes from children’s hospital wards. Our Houses provide more than accommodation. We offer stability and emotional support that allow parents and carers to be active partners in care.

Story

<p>Hi All,</p> <p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. I am running the London Marathon (22 April 2012) in support of the Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC). RMHC is an independent Charity which provides a &ldquo;home away from home&rdquo; for families with children in hospital, somewhere free to stay for as long as they need to, so that their child can receive expert medical care from specialist children&rsquo;s hospitals across the UK. There are currently 14 Ronald McDonald Houses and 29 sets of Ronald McDonald Family Rooms across the UK, providing 400 bedrooms every single night of the year.</p> <p>I ran the Great South Run in 2010 (10 miles in 1hr 12mins) but no further than that so 26.2 miles is going to be fun!!! Any donation of any size is greatly appreciated so thank you again for the support.</p> <p>Many thanks,</p> <p>Ian</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
