Story

Welcome to my Just Giving fundraising page! I am running the 2024 Edinburgh Half Marathon for The Food Train Ltd, specifically their Dumfries and Galloway Branch in order to raise as much money as possible. They are a fantastic Charity that do great work through supporting older people to live independently at home should they so wish, by providing various support services delivered by a wonderful team of volunteers who help with shopping and delivery , odd jobs around the house, befriending, and hot meals. Because of this support, the charity helps make sure older people are safe, well-nourished and supported which not only helps their individual customers but relieves pressure on Social Services and the NHS. Some comments made by customers include: - "Getting older, it's reassuring to know there are good people who can help." - "It keeps me alive." - "A wonderful group of caring people!" The charity also reassures families that their members are well cared for and they have a wonderful impact on the community. I would be so grateful if you could take the time to sponsor me to help this cause and to motivate me in my training!
