My story

 

Thanks for visiting this page - please read on and donate generously.

With all the trials and tribulations facing us at the moment, it's too easy to forget that many people are living in an environment that is way more difficult: one in which their basic human rights are denied to them, one in which people's right to freedom of expression is met by intimidation, harrassment and ill-treatment.

That's why I'm running this year's London Marathon to raise money to support the work that Amnesty International are doing, work that helps make the world a better place for other people less fortunate than you and I simply because of the country and environment that they happen to live in.

Last time I ran for Amnesty International I raised just over £2,000 - this time I want to go one step further and raise at least £2,500. Your support will help me reach this target.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Amnesty International UK Section Charitable Trust 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!
