Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: beat gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!

You may or may not know that I enjoy running (it's all I talk about, right?) and i've run a few races in the past. I decided that this year I was going to do as many races as I could manage/afford/get to. After running a couple of enjoyable 10km races I decided I wanted to do something a bit different and  I found out about the Every Woman's Duathlon in Bushy Park on the 6th September which consists of a 2.5km run, followed by a 10km bike ride then another 2.5km run

 I was an idiot and signed up for it so I guess i'm going to have to go through with it.

By doing this Duathlon I hope to raise atleast £200 for the wonderful charity Beat, who I know from first hand experience do some fantastic work. I know money is tight for alot of people at the moment, but please donate as much or as little as you can afford. I know the money will go to great use.

Beat’s aims are:

  • To change the way everyone thinks and talks about eating disorders
  • To improve the way services and treatment are provided
  • And to help anyone believe that their eating disorder can be beaten

We do this by:

  • Challenging the stereotypes and stigma that people with eating disorders face
  • Campaigning for better services and treatment
  • Providing information, support and encouragement to seek treatment and recovery
So if you see me cycling round Feltham looking like i'm about to have a heart attack, please remind me why i'm doing this!
 
Thank you so much to everyone who sponsors me, if you'd prefer to sponsor me in person, let me know and i'll chuck the sponsorship form your way.
Feel free to come and cheer me on on the day!!
Thank you!!
