Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Daughter (Jo) and dad (Bernard) are doing the Great North Run (half marathon) in support of the National Autistic Society. The society exists to champion the rights and interests of over half a million people with autism and to ensure that they and their families receive quality services appropriate to their needs.

We are both a little older than we were when the photo was taken, which is good news for Jo as she probably would have struggled to run 13 miles at that age, but not so good news for Bernard, who wishes he still had those only thirty year old legs!
