Flora London Marathon 2009 · 26 April 2009 ·

It's bewildering and unsettling for anyone going into hospital but especially for children and that is why we are a fundraising hospital. We raise funds to enhance the experience of our patients by providing state of the art medical equipment and facilities and creating a child-friendly environment.

Story

Hi

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

This time last year, I agreed to do the London Marathon in my 40th Birthday year. It seemed like a good idea at the time........Birmingham Children's Hospital kindly agreed to allocate to me one of their entry slots - in return for some fundraising.

Little did I know then that within weeks, my son Callum would be in a serious burns unit, and Linda & I would be experiencing first hand the tremendous work that these hospitals do. Callum made a complete recovery, but not all of the children are so fortunate.

Please help me to raise money for these deserving children.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Birmingham Children's Hospital Charities 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.

kind regards

Mark
