Dear all - just to let you know I made it. 3 h 45 minutes. Not a great time but I made it round. I'll be coming for my money...!
E:)
Please sponsor me online. I am running the London Marathon for the 3rd time. I am running in aid of Hospitality Action, which is the only charity to cover the entire hospitality industry. Here are just some of the things HA have done to help people in the hospitality industry:
Essential needs grants to help with buying school uniforms for children; help with relocation costs; help with rent during illness; help with deposits for accommodation; assistance with replacing broken down household appliances for those on low wages.
Most of these were not large grants, but they were just what these people needed to 'get back on their feet'. I sincerely hope none of you reading this will ever need HA's help, but it is nice to know they are there if you do, isn't it?
Giving through my website is easy wherever you are in the world (but if you are a UK taxpayer it can mean even more money for Hospitality Action as they can reclaim the tax!). You can use credit and debit (Switch) cards.
It's the most efficient way for me to raise funds for my charity. If you are a UK taxpayer your donation will be increased by almost a third at no cost to you.
Hospitality Action beneficiaries and I really appreciate your donation. Any amount will make a difference but please try to give generously!
Many thanks

ps. If you would prefer to give me cash or write a cheque, that is fine too!
