Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

My name is Mike Rigby and I am a 37 year old Bank Manager living in Tunbridge Wells with my wife (Kate) and 21 month old boy (Ollie). You can see us all in the photo above on holiday last year. 

I have always enjoyed running but to date have never run further than a half marathon. I have always wanted to run the London Marathon and am delighted to be running it for Baby Lifeline this year.

I am looking forward to the discipline that the training will demand and to raising a significant amount of money for Baby Lifeline.

Please help me raise money for this charity to allow them to offer loving care and support to pregnant mothers and new born babies all over the UK. It is simply amazing that with all the medical advancement we have seen over the years, that 8,500 babies still die at or around the time of birth. Hopefully the funds i raise will help reduce this number as far as possible.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Some good news: My employer, Barclays Bank will match the first £750 I raise so lets make sure we extract that as a starter! 

So please dig deep and donate now.
