Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>I didn't expect to be fundraising again for my running, or at least not for a long time. However, the current financial situation is squeezing charitities and Cruse is no exception. When I heard Becky, our fundraiser, saying she was looking for people to fundraise at the Bristol Half marathon, I said I'd do it. So, here I am again, hoping you might donate some money to this really worthwhile cause. As you'll know Cruse offers counselling to people who are bereaved, and it proves to be a life line for many people. Watching someone transform from the day they first come for a session to when they finish is truly rewarding. This can turn lives around. I hope you'll give generously.The race was on Sep. 11th, a poignant date, and I finished it in 1 hour, 41 minutes and 43 seconds. My best time for a Bristol Half, although not my best time overall. There's still time to give, so please make a donation if you can.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now. Thanks.</p>
