Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.
It has been a dream of mine to run the London Marathon and now I have the opportunity I am not going to waste it. If you don't already know my mum died of cancer 2 and half years ago. During the three month long battle a Macmillian supported nurse called Sarah really helped. Mum hated all the doctors and the other nurses, but with Sarah it was different, she really knew what would help Mum and she never gave up hope, even after Mum passed away Sarah, made a special effort to come and see Dad and I and offered us help with any of the arrangements we needed to make. NHS hospitals need Nurses like Sarah, who can make dark days just a little brighter.
Don't expect me to be the next Paula Radcliffe, finishing in one piece and before dark is what I'm aiming for.
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Macmillan Cancer Support 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.
If you'd rather give a more traditional way then please just email me on paulaontour@hotmail.com and I'll get in contact with you.
So please sponsor me now!
Many thanks for your support.
Love
Paula
