Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm taking on my biggest challenge yet to once again raise funds for HERIB; a local charity which supports people living with sight loss. I will be running 13.1 miles from Newcastle to South Shields.

I have been raising funds for HERIB for almost three years in memory of my wonderful mother Ida Rose who herself lost most of her sight and who is the inspiration behind my fundraising. In the past I have organised themed party evenings, book sales, car boot stalls, collections, cake sales, face painting stalls and more to raise money . 

In  2014 I ran the Hull 10k, in 2015 I have ran the Lincoln 10k and Hornsea Third of a Marathon, which is the furthest I have ever run in a race so this half marathon will be my biggest achievement .  I hope I can count on your support. No donation is too small (or too big! :-)) 

To help reach my fundraising target of £2,000.00, I will also be hosting stalls at other events to raise funds, quiz night and bag packing.   I will keep you all updated on my training and fundraising progress throughout the year.
