My story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page and for many of you furnishing my life with details about Kennedy and Churchill.

I can't believe it. A weak moment or a life changing event. Having spent the past few years chatting about it, I signed and committed to the London Marathon 09. It had to be animal or kids to get me motivated and after a search I choose Kith and Kids. It’s a charity that needs every penny, supporting families and children that are or have had disabilities. We all know how lovely it is when the kids are taken of our hands for a morning or afternoon even an hour is bliss (yes I do love them really) but imagine if the children are especially taxing its even more valuable. These guys organise coping mechanisms, weeks away and all year support for parents, carers and most importantly the children.

I will be keeping a blog and training schedule if you are interested, and would love to raise some money for them.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Kith and Kids gets your money faster and, if you’re a taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!
