RCN England & Wales No. 232822, Scotland No. SC039088
The Fishermen's Mission is the only national charity that works solely to support active and retired fishermen and their families by providing practical, financial and pastoral support. Fishing is dangerous and unpredictable. Hardship and tragedy are facts of everyday life in the UK’s fishing

Story

About 3 months ago Kirsty Balfour had an idea! She was desperate for a night out in Edinburgh, so in order for us to justify a weekend away with the girls we decided to chuck in a Half Marathon! 

Also, I saw it as an opportunity to raise money for charity through Motivated by Mervyn, and the girls agreed. Iain (Mervyn) would be delighted that we are doing a Half Mervathon but I can just hear him saying now 'why are you only doing the half'! 

Our charity of choice is the Fisherman's Mission - I spent many summers on the boat with Iain and lobsters paid my wages - the support they offer to families is so important so please dig deep, especially if you live in a fishing community. 

Thanks, Sharon, Jess and Kirsty xxx
