My personal message:

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.

On the 13th April I will be running the London Marathon for Maternity Worldwide; you can visit their website here www.maternityworldwide.org

Maternal mortality is one of the leading causes of death of women of reproductive age in many parts of the world. A woman living in sub-Saharan Africa has a 1 in 16 lifetime risk of dying in childbirth, with the highest risk being 1 in 6 in Sierra Leone and Afghanistan. This compares to a lifetime risk of just 1 in 30 000 in Sweden.

Maternity Worldwide employs and trains medical and midwifery staff, sets up community education and women's empowerment groups and maintains a Safe Birth Fund to help those who are unable to pay for professional care during childbirth.

The average cost of a professional delivery in the Maternity Worldwide maternity unit in Gimbie, Ethiopia is just £15.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Maternity Worldwide 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.

Thanks a lot for all your support!!
