Why? Turn me into 'Caz - World's Strongest Woman!'
Some of you may think that running in the GREAT MANCHESTER 10K RUN will be easy for me having been a sporty youngster...don't forget that university and an office job have happened since then! I am super unfit and not only will running 10K give me the opportunity to raise some much needed funds for a under-represented and very important charity (NACC) but will give me a goal and stop me from eating all the pies! So for all these reasons (and because you're all such lovely, giving people), please do sponsor me if you can...maybe you could just have one less drink at the weekend and donate the money you save - every little helps!
About the Charity - Visit their website http://www.nacc.org.uk
NACC (National Association for Colitis and Chrohn's Disease)
Not many people know very much about either of these diseases and yet they affect one in 400 people in the UK. Both are diseases which affect people of all ages and can only be managed through the taking of strong drugs (often with nasty side effects) for the rest of your life OR through major surgery to remove parts of the digestive system. It is hard to see people losing self-confidence due to any disease / surgery and it would be fantastic for the NACC to be able to have the funds to do more research and potentially come up with some better ways of managing this disease, if not finding a cure!
Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The National Association for Colitis and Crohn's Disease - NACC gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
