My story

 

I did it!!!!  In 3 hours 57 minutes and 54 seconds!  What a day!

It's not too late to help me raise money for RefugeeYouth - and here's why you should ...

Running 26.2 miles IS long and painful, even with the support of family, friends and thousands of cheering onlookers.

Young refugees travel thousands of miles, often alone.  No-one is cheering and many have lost the support of parents, relatives and others who they were close to.

Having worked with RefugeeYouth, I know that every penny is well spent, helping young refugees to settle and thrive in a sometimes hostile city, with many going on to becoming young leaders themselves, making a great contribution to society.

Visit their website to find out more, but before you do, sponsor me!

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Barbara Melunsky Refugee Youth Agency Limited 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!
