About my charity : The Tibet Relief Fund The Tibet Relief Fund
Tibet Relief Fund was set up to respond to the needs of Tibetan refugees, following the Chinese invasion of Tibet in 1950. Today, we provide vital support to Tibetans in exile and inside Tibet, including emergency aid to newly-arrived refugees and education, healthcare and income-generating projects for the long-term. Tibet Relief Fund also runs a sponsorship programme to support children, university students, elderly people, monks and nuns. Please visit our website for more information: www.tibetrelieffund.co.uk, call 020 7272 1414 or email trf@tibetrelieffund.co.uk.

My personal message:

Thank you so very much to all of you who wonderfully sponsored me to run the marathon.  It was a gruelly 26.2 miles, but then I knew that the pain and agony was NOTHING compared to the multiple and ongoing suffering of the Tibetan people.  There will be a report in the next TIBET RELIEF FUND newsletter.

It certainly kept me going knowing that I was running for THE TIBET RELIEF FUND to help their wonderful work for Tibetans.  I've seen first-hand the delighted smiles of littleTibetan children having the new experience of a school.  I've watched the solar kettles (costing only £30 each) working in the intense Himalayan radiation, providing the essential hot water for tea.  I've felt the sadness... and the beauty... and the desperate need...

It is still possible to sponsor me now

Thank you so very much for your support

Tess
