Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

This year I was lucky to get a ballot place in The Great North Run. This is one of the biggest half marathons, so I thought it would also be a great opportunity to raise money for a local charity, Emily’s Star.

Since meeting Emily's Mum Katie, I have learnt of the fantastic work that the charity does.

⭐️ Granting wishes to families who have a child or children with life limiting, or life threatening illness.

⭐️ Raising awareness of Trisomy 18 also known as Edwards Syndrome, the UK's second most common syndrome

⭐️ Providing neonatal boxes to local neonatal units that include items for both Mum and premature or underweight babies. They call these boxes “Emily’s Gift”

Any donation you can make will help Emily’s Star continue to shine bright.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
