My story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. I am running/walking/crawling the Manchester 10k on Sunday 17 May for two charities, The Charles Halle Foundation and Adoption Matters. This website is for donations to the Halle only, if you would prefer to sponsor me for Adoption Matters just send a cheque or give me some cash next time you see me!

I'm not a natural athlete and was in fact dropped from the school team for being unable to complete the 400m dash. But I do have a tenacious spirit , some say I'm like a dog with a bone (!) so once I start something I'm unlikely to give up.

If you can be there and support verbally (and want a good laugh) please do so or if you would like to sponsor me just click on the link.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Charles Hallé Foundation 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! Please....just so I know that all that training, buckled knees, loss of height due to spine compression and weight gain as well as the humiliation of being swept up by street cleaners on the day has all been worth it!

Thanks
