Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Baby LifeLine is an incredible charity, run by an incredible team, who deserve all the support they can get. With the birth of my amazing Godson Leo last summer I cannot think of a better charity to raise money for, and hope that I can raise a lot of money to help newborn babies and their mothers across the UK. More details can be found on:     http://www.babylifeline.org.uk/

 

This will infact be my second marathon, after running Dublin in 2009, however my previous experience will by no means make this marathon easy, as I can no longer proclaim blind ignorance at the inevitable pain come race day in April! Currently being a student has it's benefits for such an event, as I obviously have plenty of time to train; however it also has its draw backs in trying to tease sponsorship money out of my contemporaries who consider anything other than supermarket economy brand baked beans "splashing out".

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 and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
