The ability to get around is vital in order to live a full life yet thousands of people with sight loss never leave home alone. We empower visually impaired people to do that and rely on the support of the public to fund the guide dog service.

Story

Hi all

On 13th April I will be attempting to run the long 26 miles of the London Marathon all to raise money for Guide Dogs for the Blind!

I am sure you have seen one of my team mates on Tv, Blind Dave who is running 7 marathons in 7 continents. Im going to struggle with just one, let alone 7, let alone blind!! Just imagine how that would be.

A guide dog helps those partially sighted/ Blind and helps make their lives a better and more managable, but also gives them a friend. I know anyone with a dog knows that. I have a lab and hes the best!!

So please dig deep and give me a meaning to run these 26 miles of pain, as its not going to be fun, but will do it for my Charity.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Guide Dogs 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.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.
