Thanks for taking the time to check out my page! I'm sure you're all fed up with me trying to get money out of you for various charities, but this time its for something closer to home so i expect your help!! Especially from you Saints fans!

On Sunday 27th October i will be running the Great South Run in aid of the Saints Foundation - a fantastic charity that uses its affilation with Southampton FC to help raise funds for disadvantaged children and adults in our local area. This is what your donations could do...

£80 will pay for the cost of a venue for 3 hours to hold a football coaching session for 30 young people and adults with disabilities, where as £450 will pay to take the Saints disability squad of 40 players to a football festival - something they would never be able to do otherwise.

£20 will pay for a tour guide for a kids dream day - a chance for local disadvantaged and disabled children (often with life threatening illnesses) to tour St Marys Stadium, including photos with the team and special goodie bags.

The Saints Foundation also helps rehabiliate young offenders and drug users - offering them education courses and days out to aid their recovery. 

As well as this, they fund after school clubs at many local primary schools - including my daughters - as well as funding booster sessions in literacy, numeracy and IT. £100 will help 15 pupils gain these important skills. 

This doesnt even really touch on the amazing work they do for our local community, for more info visit www.saintsfoundation.co.uk.

We all know how much running the Reading Half Marathon killed me...and this time i want to be able to run without losing the feeling in my legs for the following two weeks! But i need your support and donations to make this worth while!

Please donate now, and help give something back to our local community. 

Thanks you so much, 

Jess xxxx
