Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
On 10th April 2016 I will be running 13.1 miles in the Sheffield Half Marathon to raise money for Sheffield Samaritans. Samaritans are a charity, entirely reliant on volunteer support and donations, any sponsorship goes directly to helping volunteers answer calls, and reply to text and emails - so any donation, however small, would be greatly appreciated.
Samaritans listen.
They are completely confidential and anonymous, providing emotional support to people who are struggling to cope and need someone to talk to. They work hard so fewer people take their own lives. Running the half marathon is to support this vital service, and also raise awareness in helping remove the stigma of talking about depression and mental health.
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.
Thank you for your support!
