Raising money for

The PACE Centre

Charity Registration No. 1011133

What's so special about PACE? At PACE children with physical disabilities such as cerebral palsy find their own voice, walk their own steps and discover that they can fully enjoy everyday life and become active members of society. Cerebral palsy is a physical condition affecting movement as a result of damage to the brain. We believe in each child's ability to learn despite their disability. We provide a loving and inspirational environment, motivating children with physical disabilities to work hard at achieving their goals. Our focus is on 'educating for life' - developing a child's social, emotional, communication, academic and motor skills. Every child's achievement is a direct result of our unique staff team, all working together in one centre with the child at its heart. PACE is a charity inspired by the principles of Conductive Education, a system which emphasises that children develop as a whole. One in every 400 children in the UK is affected by cerebral palsy. Your support enables us to reach children and families though intensive programmes, training and outreach. We depend on donations from trusts, businesses, groups and individuals.

My story

Welcome to my fundraising page!

I will be running the BUPA London 10,000 on May 26^th 2008. All the funds we raise together will go to The PACE Center, a charity committed to providing a loving and inspirational environment to children with physical disabilities such as cerebral palsy.

Can you guess my finishing time???

Leave a comment with your donation (no matter how small it is appreciated!) of your best guess. Whoever gets closer will get a brilliant personalized prize!

Here is 2 reasons why you should sponsor me:

a) This is worth your money

b) The idea of having me go through pain is a bit attractive to you… a bit too much!

For those who can relate to reason (a), please click on the top button where it says “Sponsor Me Now”. Thank you so much!!

For those who can also relate to reason (b), let me share with you what I will go through…

Before the race:

No rubbish food

No nights of wild drinking

Training 4 times a week minimum

During the race:

Sweating like a pig.

Shaking kness like a first day school boy.

Eating salt packets to void hyponatremia, which according to Wikipedia:

“may result in vomiting, seizures, coma and even death”

After the race:

The shame of having people 3 times your age beat you.

Muscle soreness for weeks to come.

Oh, and I almost forget, sorry to tell you this one but… the pride of doing something that is worth it!

So go ahead, make your kind donation for whatever your reasons, and make your finishing time bet.

See you at the finish line!
