Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am luckily enough to have secured a place through my work (KPMG),as part of the national charities partnership, for the Great North run on Sunday 15th September 2013. I will be raising funds for the National Literacy Trust. To find out more about the charity and the work they do, please visit:

This will be my first EVER half marathon. The only organised race event I have done previously is a 5k. I'm now attempting 4x that and a bit more!!

To give me some much needed support/motivation, I would really appreciate any donation you can offer. I would love to raise as much as possible for the National Literacy Trust  and help changes lives through literacy.

You can follow my progress and training via twitter as I'll be posting updates by following ma @xjesix.

All support will be most welcome.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
