Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I have the opportunity to raise funds for The Dream Factory, a charity that has so far granted over 460 dreams for children and young adults, by competing in the 2019 Comrades Ultra Marathon in South Africa.

Having been raising funds for various charities over the last 10 years (£77,849 so far !) I know I need to do something a little extra to warrant further sponsorship. So I decided to take part in the Comrades Ultra Marathon in South Africa. This is a non stop 55 mile race with 1000m of ascent with just a 12 hour time limit to complete the race so quite hard ! I would appreciate any amount of support you can offer, it will enable The Dream Factory to fund further dreams and every penny donated is going direct to the Dream Factory.

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.
