Story
KIND - Kids in Need - is a small charity based in Liverpool doing great work with disadvantaged children on Merseyside. Every year KIND runs a week long residential activities holiday in Wales for children who would normally never have such an experience. We (Jill Watson and I) want to raise money to send as many children as possible from our region on the next KIND summer residential AND to show how serious we are, we have taken on the massive challenge of running the Liverpool Rock 'n' Roll Marathon on 24 May 2020. In addition, we would like to raise funds to help equip and run a children's nursery school in one of the poorest areas of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania where I have spent a great deal of time. We are passionate about children and young people and want to make a difference and with your help WE CAN.

4 years agoIn the light of the current pandemic and given that the Liverpool Rock n Roll Marathon has been postponed until 24th October I wanted to ask if any of those who have already donated object to the monies so far collected being released and distributed as they could help in the situation faced now. PM me if you object. Oh and just a reminder that we had reached 20 miles in our training.

4 years ago20 miler in the bag! If anyone had told me I would run 20 miles even a year ago I would have laughed. Can't say I enjoyed all of it but I enjoyed more of it than I thought I would. The weather was kind to us and having a running partner (Jill Watson) really helps. Please donate if you can. Any amount is worthwhile. THANK YOU SO MUCH.

4 years agoSo, yesterday we completed our 17 miler training run. The weather was mostly bearable with around a 20min period of very heavy rain courtesy of Storm Dennis. Could hardly walk afterwards so now wondering how I'm going to do the next one - 20miles. Ha! But we will do it because we are just concentrating on the cause. Please donate anything you can, however small - it all counts. Thank you so much to those who have already donated.
