Freckleton Half Marathon/Mile Open Water Swim

Participants: Hilary, Sarah, Marion

Freckleton Half Marathon · 17 June 2012

CHIVA Africa is working at the frontline to ensure that no child is born with HIV and no child dies from a treatable condition. In communities where we serve, many pregnant women are living with HIV — but with early diagnosis and treatment, transmission to their babies can be prevented. We support healthcare workers to identify mothers early, start treatment, and protect every child before birth. For babies born with HIV, time is critical. We help clinics find these infants quickly, start lifesaving treatment, and ensure they receive the care they need to survive and thrive. We also support children living with HIV and their caregivers, providing both clinical guidance and emotional support so that every child can grow up healthy and strong. Using real-time health data, we identify children at risk and ensure no one is left behind. Beyond treatment, we empower young people through prevention programmes that give them knowledge, confidence, and hope. Every mother supported is a child protected. Every child reached is a life saved.

Story

Hey everyone!

Thanks for checking out our Just Giving Page! Myself, Sarah Burd, and my Mum, Marion Ball are going to be raising money for CHIVA Africa which is a fantastic charity that is tackling the HIV AIDS epidemic in South Africa. Please read more about it here or visit the website: http://chiva-africa.org/

Sarah is going to do this by running a half marathon in a lovely seaside town up North called Freckleton on 17th June. My Mum and I are going to complete a mile open water swim in Ullswater, Cumbria on 15th July. These activities are a first for all of us and require a lot of training and stamina! We would absolutely love it if you could help sponsor us, and it is really easy to do using this page. Thank you so much, it is really appreciated!!

Hilary.
