Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

The TONI&GUY Charitable Foundation are raising money for the renovation of one of the tired and congested wards in the Variety Club Children's Hospital. Through generous donations we have been able to create the TONI&GUY Ward - a brand new state-of-the-art ward, with up-to-date equipment and large, spacious colourful rooms.

40,000 children are treated at this hospital every year and it is renowned for providing quality services for children who travel from across the country for specialist treatment, particularly in the fields of liver disease, neurosurgery, cystic fibrosis and sickle cell disease. The new TONI&GUY Ward makes sure that the Variety Club Children's Hospital can continue to provide the first class care they are renowned for.

As well as raising money for such a worthy cause as the Toni & Guy Charitable foundation, my main inspiration for running the New York Marathon is in memory of Pete Morgan. Pete was a close family friend who unfortunately passed away last year aged 56. Pete was a true Marathon hero who completed both the London and New York Marathons. His fastest time being 3 hours 8 mins, an amazing achievement and one that I can only hope to match.
