Stockholm Marathon · 11 March 2009

KEEN is an organisation that provides weekly sporting and recreational activities for children and adults with special needs in Oxfordshire. We aim to provide fun and a sense of inclusion to people with all levels and types of disability, relying heavily on our wonderful volunteers to do so.

Story

On Saturday 30th May we will be running the Stockholm Marathon. We’re raising money for KEEN, an oxford-based student-run charity supporting local young people with special needs. More details about KEEN, which we both volunteer for, can be found at its home page: www.keenoxford.org

We’re hoping to raise at least £1500. Please give what you can, large or small. For some ideas about how far your money will go:

  • £4 will pay for one athlete to go ice skating
  • £7.50 will pay for one athlete to go bowling
  • £10 will pay for minibus transport for an athlete to and from a session
  • £14 will pay for the hall rent for one GrEAT session
  • £24 will pay for the room rent for one training session for volunteers
  • £72 will pay for a swimming party

Thanks very much!
