Hello there,

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page - In April I'll be running 26.2 miles to raise £3,000 to support a project that prevents children being trafficked and sexually exploited - I'd be really grateful if you would sponsor me.

I will be attempting to run the London Marathon on behalf of Christian Aid and ECPAT International's Youth Partnership Project. ECPAT (www.ecpat.net) works to prevent the commercial sexual exploitation of children. Any support you are able to give will go this excellent project. 

This project, also supported by Comic Relief, is working to build the capacity of trafficking survivors to help thousands of children at risk along the borders of India, Nepal and Bangladesh from being trafficked, which often results in their forced prostitution.

Having worked for ECPAT and been involved in this project its one I feel very strongly about. Its already making a real and lasting difference to the lives of children who are vulnerable to such terrible exploitation. Your donation will help enable this vital work to continue.

Please sponsor me - I was gutted that I had to pull out of theNew Forest marathon through injury a few days before it started last summer. I'm even more determined to complete this one, and support a desperately important project at the same time.

Thank you for anything you can give!
