Story

 

 

Hello Everyone,

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

At the beginning of the year, I decided to not only take up running, but to also enter and train for my first ever marathon.

The money I raise will help towards funding the salary of a Music Therapist for Claire House Children's Hospice, in memory of Beryl McGrath.

Music Therapy provides a channel of communication to children and adults who are unable to express their emotions verbally or physically. For many, music therapy offers, for the first time, the opportunity for self-expression and the exploration of feelings through sound, rhythm and melody.

Since mid-April alone, I have run 326 miles and burned 33,300 calories. I’ve run until I’ve ran out of road, I’ve dodged dual carriageways and angry Parisian drivers, and been lost more times than I wish to admit.

Please help support me and this cause, which I know will bring delight to so many children at Claire House.

Best wishes,

 Jen
