My story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. I will be running my first marathon in London in 2009 to raise money for Headway.

The Costello family and I am enormously grateful for your support - knowing that all this money will be going to a fantastic charity should keep my feet moving (maybe even running!) right up to the last 385 yards.

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