Flora London Marathon 2007 · 22 April 2007 ·

Every year we support thousands of children and families right across the country. We provide rehabilitation to help children make the best recovery possible after a serious accident or illness, both at our national specialist centre in Tadworth and in the community.

Story

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure, donations made now will go directly my charity.   Please give generously to help me achieve my target.

Until now I have been running to prove to myself that I can do it and I have not wanted to ask for sponsorship.   This has now changed.  I am under no illusions - it's going to be tough.   I have now run two half marathons and the thought of turning around at the end and running it again is still almost impossible for me to contemplate.    But I have reached the time in my life when I want to be able to look back and know that I have achieved something worthwhile.   I have been a spectator and now I think I can run it too.  

I have chosen to support The Children’s Trust in Tadworth, Surrey who not only provide a fantastic service for my local community but for the UK as a whole. Some of the children it helps have been born with a disability or life limiting condition; others have become disabled following an accident or illness such as meningitis

Please go to my website which I am updating regularly to follow my training progress and to findout more about my chosen cause - The Children’s Trust.
