Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I've now run the half marathon and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. I did it in 1hr and 55 mins.
Although the race is now completed I will still be keeping this page open for a few weeks incase you would like to contribute towards two wonderful causes. The money that I raise will go to the following:
1. The Salvation Army's Earthquake response in Haiti.
Haiti is the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. The Army is on the front line of the relief work taking place. It has a large presence in the country with over 60 community/corps centres, 50 schools (including 400 teachers and 10,000 pupils), and a number of health clinics and social centres.
Follow the video link to hear a report from one of the disaster service directors:

2. The Salvation Army in Gibbonsdown, South Wales.
My wife and I lead the Salvation Army's work in the local community of Gibbonsdown in Barry. This includes a parent and toddler group, kids and youth clubs, spiritual ministry, social action projects and work with the elderly and families.
Follow the video link to watch a short film we made about our work a few years ago:

Thank you for your support. I've been humbled and encouraged by it many times over.
