Raising money for

Over The Wall

Charity Registration No. 1075361

We provide activity camps for children and young people affected by serious illnesses. These young people frequently lack confidence as a result of prolonged and isolating treatment. At camp we create a fun and positive environment where our campers can act their age without worrying about their illnesses. In the presence of others facing similar challenges, feelings of isolation are overcome, confidence grows and friendships are made.

My story

Yep, I'm running it again. It seemed like a good idea when I entered the ballot, but not so great once the confirmation came through that I had a place!

This year I am hoping to raise lots of money for a charity close to my heart - Over The Wall. As some of you will know, for the past 2 summers I have volunteered at a residential summer camp for seriously ill children, which is run by OTW. Having been to the camps, I am very keen to raise money so that more children can experience all that it has to offer. The children who will benefit from this money are those that spend lots of their life in and out of hospital. This camp allows them to mix in a fun environment with children in similar situations. Over the course of the week they try many activities from kayaking, archery, rock climbing, swimming etc and it's amazing to watch how their confidence grows. The best thing about camp is watching the kids be kids again, just enjoying themselves and forgetting about all their problems.

For this reason, I would love to raise £2,000 - this is how much it costs to send two children to camp for a week. So, please give as much as you can afford....check out the website too to see exactly where the money will go.... www.otw.org.uk

On a separate note, if anyone is around in London that weekend, I would really appreciate your support. Last time I ran I had someone at every mile marker, this was undoubtably the only thing that kept me going, so thank you all for that. If you are able to make it, please let me know and let me know where you will be so that I can keep an eye out for you......

and finally....donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Over The Wall will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.
