Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am raising money for Brightside because as much as I hate running and I mean hate, I love what we do as a charity and believe in the cause. I went running once, it was horrendous! Baring that in mind, I need to be as fit as a fiddle and I've only got 7 weeks, so please sponsor me to make me feel like my efforts are worth it!

I will also be dressed as a Superhero. Costume suggestions on a postcard, please!

Apart from making me feel good your money will go towards our first ever mentoring awards. Why would I want my money to go to this you might ask? Well, our volunteer mentors have been working hard all year to help young people from disadvantaged backgrounds (their mentees) get in to education and employment. We think both the mentees and mentors should be recognised and rewarded for all their hard work and achievements.

If we raise more than we need for that, the money will go towards providing equipment and resources for 10 young people to volunteer with us so they can get training, make videos, write and campaign.

Donating through JustGiving is fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. 

So please dig deep and donate now.

I am running 5k on the 1st of April as part of Heroes Run http://www.heroesrun.org.uk/content/runclapham
