Hi all!

As most of you will already know I have been volunteering as a Lead Cook for The Food Chain for almost 6 years and recently became a Trustee.  On Sunday 6th July I will be participating in the British 10K London Run and raising sponsorship on behalf of The Food Chain. 

Have I been training hard? No!  So I need all the encouragement to train during the month leading up to the big day!  Whilst you lot are all enjoying Euro 2008 without the stress of England actually competing I will be out there jogging around Clissold Park night after night, breaking only occasionally for a carbohydrate snack and glass of wine.

And what better form of encouragement than your generous sponsorship for a very good cause

Here is a comment from a Food Chain service user just to show how gratefully  our meals are received each Sunday:

"I would like to say how much I appreciate the wonderful food my partner and I receive. We are on benefits and I have a lot of debts. I am her full time carer and partner and its hard work, although I don’t really mind because I love her to bits. The Sunday lunch gives me and my partner a welcomed break and I can’t tell you how much it helps. So once again thank you so much, the food is delicious. Thanks. Keep up the brilliant work you do."

Thank you!

 

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Food Chain 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!
