Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

It's now only a few days to go before I run the Prague Half Marathon, on Saturday 28th March. I've been training hard over the last couple of months, running around (and over) the hills in Crystal Palace Park, London, and am confident of putting in a great time. Sadly, no matter how hard I push, I don't think I'm going to beat my target time of 1hr 45, but I will try my very best.

Don't forget all this effort is in support of a great cause - the REDRESS Trust. It is a great human rights organisation that works to prevent torture, and gives support to those who have been tortured overseas. It is a hugely important cause and one that I hope you'll be pleased to support.

Don't forget, if you’re a UK taxpayer, you can add Gift Aid to your donation at no extra cost. Justgiving will add 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, to your donation. Easy!

Please give me whatever you can afford. I know times are hard, but you will know I don't ask often, so please sponsor me now!
