We are Scope. We campaign to transform attitudes to disability, tackle injustice and inspire action. We create opportunities and provide information and support that empowers.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

A friend has recently informed me that half-marathons can be 'relaxing'. Whilst I have yet to discover this hidden zen in my training, I will nevertheless be taking part in the Brighton Half Marathon on Feb 16th. 

To entice my kind-hearted friends and family to donate:

I'll be running for Scope, a charity which lends a hand to disabled people and their families in communities throughout the UK. Helping with after-school care, residential care and help with finding work, they work to improve the lives of our disabled citizens. Scope also run a programme which focuses on changing common attitudes to disabilities through education. A more worthy charity for my sweat (and most likely tears) is hard to come by. 

All others who enjoy a cheap laugh (Mum):

It's going to be bloody traumatic and I'm a runner of the tomato-red-after-15-minutes variety (see prof pic). 

I'm aiming to be gasping my way to the finish line in 2 hours 15, so any onlookers are welcome to come for support/to laugh/to have a pint after I've recovered. 

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.

Donations would be much appreciated for such a fantastic charity. 

Thank you!
