Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

As a parent I feel passionate about education for children and feel that it is so important in this time of cuts and funding issues to support schools wherever possible to obtain the equipment needed for all children to have opportunities to learn in all areas. 

I am also passionate about running. Every year I run Worthing Half Marathon with my dedicated friend and running partner, Sarah (who also happens to be Auntie to my three boys). Last year I had six months off running from injury and whilst recovering I decided I had to be fixed for Worthing Half. Missing it wouldn’t feel right. So Sarah and I set about making this our plan. Together we have been training and we’re looking forward to and feeling confident about the race. 

Meanwhile having heard how my children’s school Swiss Gardens Primary School were needing to raise significant funds to provide essential IT equipment I thought why not combine mine and Sarah’s love of running and determination to get round Worthing with raising some funds towards this extremely worthy cause. 

So if you can find your way to making a donation (of any amount) then it will certainly help spur us on come race day (and on cold, windy, wet training runs in the next few weeks) but more importantly we know how much it will mean to the parents and staff of this simply brilliant school who are so committed to giving children the best educational experience possible. 

Thank you for taking time to read and for all your support. We really appreciate it. Now time to to go off for a run!

About the charity

The PTA at Swiss Gardens plays an essential role in regular fundraising to supply resources for the school to support and enhance the playing and learning environment for all children and teachers. The PTA encourages all parents, teachers, grandparents and carers of children at the school to submit requests and ideas to enhance the schools facilities and resources. The PTA will aim to fulfill all requests from teachers where it is possible within the budget available to them. The PTA aims to run events at the school which not only raise money but which enhance the experiences of children after school and bring together parents and children as a community centered on the school. The PTA aims to plan events and meetings at least a term in advance and longer in advance where possible.
