Story

Hi everyone,  thanks for clicking on this to have a look.

So me and Alex decided to enter the Brighton Marathon, neither of us have any previous but we decided that we would like to do something to give a little back to the the group that has supported our little brother Joseph since he left school.

Number 6 is a service for adults with High Functioning Autism or Asperger Syndrome who live in the Lothians and the Borders.  They have been so important in helping Joseph become independant and allow him the freedom to do the things that you or I might seem unimportant but to him make all the difference in dealing with everyday life. They have my thanks and if you would be willing to donate a little of your hard earned cash you would have my thanks also.  

I'm planning to try and film the whole buildup and race on a GoPro camera that i'll attach to my head so if you give us some money, i'll send you a silly video of us (probably crying) after finishing the race!

If that's not worth a fiver then i don't know what is!
