This year I'll be strapping the trainers back on to run the London Marathon.  I'm hoping this fact alone will encourage you to dig deep and give generously!

I'm raising funds for the Friends of the Children of Orissa who are a small UK charity who fund a school - Palli Unnayan Seva Samiti (PUSS) - in Orissa (Odisha), one of India's poorest states. It provides education and a loving home to girls from disadvantaged backgrounds - for instance daughters of sex workers - as well as being home to abandoned toddlers and orphans. You can find out more about PUSS and the Friends charity at #orissa.org.uk#
