My story

Thanks for visiting our fundraising page.

The 3 of us are running the London Marathon dressed as superheroes (Nick and Gareth dressed as Batman and Robin - the Delboy and Rodney version, rather than anything remotely cool, obviously).

Oh yes, and we are running it 3-legged. Wends is our superhero accomplice who is helping us to carry the collection buckets on the way round. How hard can it be???

We are running it for Bliss, who are a fantastic charity who touched Nick and Wendy's lives when our daughter Rebecca was born 14 weeks early weighing a pound and a half and our son Alex at 3 pounds.

Thank you so much for any donations - as you can imagine, this will be a seriously difficult event and we are doing it this way purely to maximise the money we can raise.

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

Thanks from all of us

Nick, Gareth and Wendy
