One World Action

Charity Registration No. 1022298

One World Action is an international development agency and registered charity. We work with local partners in developing countries across Africa, Latin America and Asia to ensure that marginalised people have a voice in the decisions that shape their lives. We provide funding, training and capacity building, while challenging unjust international policies on aid and trade. We link our partners together and support them in speaking directly to decision makers because people are always their own best advocates.

My story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Spurred on by my success in the 2008 London 10K run (the fact that I finished is a success in my book!), and the need to kick my sedentary lifestyle into touch, I signed up to do the 2009 London Marathon!

All the preparation, new trainers, socks and nipple-guards came together to allow me to set a personal best in both distance and time. I finished in 5 hours 10 minutes.

It's all for a very good cause - One World Action - and everybody has been extremely generous so far because it's quite a target but when you see what a difference your sponsorship makes then I'm sure those yet to donate will give generously, as you all did previously.

Now the small print:

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: One World Action 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 and your house is not at risk by sponsoring this finely-honed athlete!

So please sponsor me now and many thanks for all your help!
