Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.  I am running the New York marathon with the hope of raising money for the Anthony Nolan Trust.  Recently I found out a friend of my family's son has be acute myeloid leukaemia, which is not the easiest to cure in children; then we found out that his genetic make-up means there is a high risk of relapse should they be able to kill off all the cancer cells and he would need a bone marrow transplant to raise his chances.  To join the bone marrow transplant list merely requires filling in a form and giving a small blood sample - in return you could save a life of someone like Seth.  As the mother of two children under three myself I believe passionatly in this charity and am commited to goin all I can to raising awareness and hopefully increasing Seth's chances of a recieving a bone marrow transplant.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Anthony Nolan Trust gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now and wish me luck for the big 26.2 miles!
