My story

Hi Everyone! Thanks for visiting my Fundraising page :-) My big challenge this year is to run (and finish!) the Cork Marathon on June 1st. It's going to be great fun, and it's a great opportunity to raise some money for a worthy cause. I've chosen Marie Curie Cancer Care. It's a wonderful charity that gives nursing care, free of charge, to terminally ill people, giving them the chance to choose to be cared for - and die - at home. We all know someone whose life has been affected by cancer - be that a family member, friends or colleagues. So please dig deep and sponsor me, I'll be hugely grateful for whatever you can give. The training is going really well so far despite a few blisters and lots of early morning starts! I'm really excited to make it to the start line, bright and early, so bring on the big day! Thank you guys Joanna xx Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It's also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Steps Charity Worldwide 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.
