Our London Landmark half Marathon runners will be raising money for our Befriending Service.

Story

This is my second half marathon, but it still doesn’t make it less scarey! I ran this half marathon last year, it was tough, I lost 2 toe nails and had a massive blister. This year I aim to make it round quicker, with all toe nails intact and lovely smooth feet. WIll that happen? Who knows! Any money you can donate to this cause, whether it’s £3 you would have spent on coffee or £50 on a slap up meal, I am so so grateful for it all as it helps such a fantastic charity and will get me around this course!

Why this charity? There are so many worthy and fantastic charities out there to support. This is a charity not many people my age support, as it's not really on the radar yet for many people or families that I know. However, my husband's support for this charity through his work has enabled me to gain a better understanding of what the charity does. The Befriending Service is amazing: befrienders are volunteers, who spare an hour or two a week to visit a lonely or isolated older person. I'd like to raise money for this great service. 

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

About the charity

In Epsom & Ewell each week 1 in 5 elderly people don't know who to turn to for advice, friendship or practical help. So every week that is what we do! Spending time, providing affordable taxi driving, providing practical services for them and giving advice. All essential services!
