Thank you for visiting my London Marathon fundraising page.

I have been working in the tourism industry for nearly 3 years during which time I’ve both sold many trips and been fortunate enough to take some great holidays. I have learnt to appreciate how wonderful a holiday is not just the opportunity to have a break but a chance to experience something different, spend time with those close to us and just have fun. A holiday can give a new lease life during hard times. A chance for family members to enjoy themselves and get away from it all, for the kids to have fun and get some fresh air.

This is why I am delighted to be helping Family Holidays Association raise funds for families who otherwise would never go on holiday. I recognised the importance of a family break when a friend of mine was selected for a free activity vacation to the Isle of White when he was twelve years old. He had never been on holiday and his mother was struggling to financially support her children on her own. He spent the week learning how to sail and surf and made many new friends for life. It was the best week of his early days. 

 
TUI Travel PLC have more than 25 runners for this years London Marathon and by raising £2,500 you and I, and the rest of my supporters will be able to provide holidays for at least 5 or 6 families. Between our whole team of TUI Travel PLC runners we hope to raise in excess of £30,000 for FHA.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Family Holiday Association will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please dig deep and sponsor me online now. I will keep you posted on the fundraising successes and, of course, my 26-mile run through the wonderful city of London!

Many thanks for your support!
