Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On July 15th I'm running the Race to the Stones, a 100km non-stop ultramarathon along Britain's oldest path (The Ridgeway). Extremely tough? You bet it is. But for an organisation that does hugely valuable work in supporting the families of those taken hostage abroad. The help includes legal, financial advisory, mental health and practical help they need to cope with having their loved one kidnapped. I'd really appreciate your support - every donation will help me reach my goal.

I have a very personal connection to the charity having experienced a family member taken hostage some years back and the charity being set up and now run by my sister Rachel who now runs the US based Hostage US.

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.
