Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

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.

I decided to sign up for the Cardiff Half Marathon because I have taken part in four 10k races in the last two years, and feel like I want to push myself that bit further.

After signing up I watched a BBC3 documentary about an inspiring young woman, who was diagnosed with Breast Cancer in her early 20s. Instead of feeling sorry for herself she set up the charity CoppaFeel, educating young women about the importance of knowing what is normal for them when it comes to their boobies!

My grandmother died of Breast Cancer so this charity really struck a chord with me and I hope to raise at least £250 for them for doing my first ever half marathon!

Thanks for reading and hopefully for donating! You're doing something wonderful!
