Phil's 10K run (it's not a race)

Phil Jacob is raising money for The Fostering Network
Donations cannot currently be made to this page

Asics British 10K London Run · 6 July 2008 ·

We are the UK’s leading fostering charity and the essential network for fostering. We support foster carers, fostering services and the wider sector to transform children’s lives. We work to ensure all fostered children and young people get the best possible care and experience stable family life.

Story

Thanks to everyone who supported me - here's proof that at least someone looking quite like me ran on Sun.

I finished the run in 55 min and seem to be unscathed, apart from not being able to walk down stairs without wincing.

So far you've helped me raise £200, which will be put to good use by the Fostering Network. £100 enables us to support a foster carer for a year, helping them give a home and a family life to a child who, for whatever reason, can’t live with their own parents. Our 10K team looks set to meet its target this year, raising enough to provide year-round support to 36 foster carers.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: the Fostering Network will receive your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% will be added to your gift at no cost to you.
