<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. This is the 3rd year I'll have done the Hastings Half Marathon, and the third time I'll have done it to raise what I can for TOLFA (<a href="http://tolfa.org.uk">The Tree of Life for Animals</a>). It's a charity close to my heart because it was set up by a close friend of mine and is run by a team of passionate and devoted people including <a href="http://tolfa.org.uk/project-raja-volunteer-scheme/" target="_blank">volunteers</a>.</p> <p>It treats the sick, wounded and abandoned animals of India. Animals that have no-one else to take care of them or tend to their injuries or afflications, to give love, attention or nutrition to them in times of need.</p> <p><a href="http://tolfa.org.uk/" target="_blank">TOLFA</a> is determined to make a difference for the future too and has set in motion an education programme in local schools and a vaccination &amp; neutering programme. After all prevention is better than cure!</p> <p>To go through JustGiving makes donating any amount, small or large, simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;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&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p>
