The Trussell Trust 5 at 50 Challenge · 6 March 2009

We’re an anti-poverty charity & community of food banks, working together to ensure no one in the UK needs a food bank, while providing practical support for people left without enough money. (Please note we're unable to forward funds onto individual food banks, funds raised here go to Trussell)

Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

This year I thought running a marathon isn't enough! I've decided to join the Trussell Trust's '5 at 50 Challenge' to run 5 events to support Chris Mould (Director of the Trussell Trust) totalling over 120K.. We've done the 5K in May and are now training for the London 10K, Half and Full Marathon, plus a 45Km mountain run in the Lake District (yikes!!) and all before the end of October!

The Trussell Trust urgently needs your money more than ever in these times of economic difficulties - there are lots of people going hungry so it's never been a better time to help! You can do your bit, too, by sponsoring me to complete all the runs in one piece. The need is urgent and is real.

This challenge isn't going to be easy (especially the Lake District run) but I'm confident in the knowledge I may have your support to spur me on.  So, please dig deep and help The Trussell Trust to continue restoring dignity and reviving hope in 2009.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Trussell 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! Thanks, Mark

P.S Many thanks to those of you who have already sponsored me - brilliant!
