Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. I really appreciate your support!
Well - I did it! The hardest, and most amazing, thing I have ever done! It is not too late to donate - I still have a month to fundraise and would love to keep smashing my target!!
This is the first time I have ever attempted anything as massive as a marathon. I am running for The Children's Trust which is an amazing charity for children with multiple disabilities. I went to visit the charity last week and found it to be completely inspiring and I am so glad I have the chance to help! I have a huge target of £1600 to raise for the charity. I would love to smash this target but will need your help, too. Here are some of the ways your money will be spent:
£4: touch and feel sensory toy
£8: soft play cubes
£15: fibre-optic light for a multi-sensory room
£57: a huge physio ball to help a child balance and play
£125: a squidgy floor mat for a child to lie on for physio
£200: music system for enjoyment and added stimulation
£300: a special sling to move children with comfort
Keep an eye on my training blog at http://katesfirstmarathon.blogspot.com to see how I am getting on with my marathon training. I promise to be completely honest and frank as I am not imagining the next few months to be easy. So far, I am 3 weeks in and enjoying the challenge but aching all the same!
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
So please dig deep and donate now. And think of me over the next few months! I'll keep you updated.
