Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm running 4km in my school's Great Curry Run on the 27th April 2013 to raise some money for the ABF Soldiers Charity, which gives lifetime help and support to serving and retired soldiers and thier families. Please check out the weblink below:

I'm running in memory of Colour Sergeant Phillip Newman, who, with his colleague, Private Brian Tunnicliffe, tragically passed away whilst resupplying essential equipment during a pause in the fighting in Afghanistan, after the vehicle they were travelling in overturned, landing on its roof. Despite all the efforts of those around them, they were sadly unable to be saved.

Why 4km? Each 10m that I am running, is for one of the soldiers killed in action. This adds up to 3950 metres, 395 soldiers, which has been rounded to 4km.
