Story

Hello! Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

A few months back, I had a bit of a mad moment and decided to try and enter the London Marathon. I was lucky/unlucky (haven't decided yet) enough to get a place and in the last few months have been doing my best to train for what I have now found out to be a daunting prospect. To the left of this page you will see a photo of me after just a 10 mile run, so try and imagine the state of me after 26 miles, actually don't, it won't be a pretty sight. With this in mind and to help spur me on, I would like to try and raise as much money as possible for Crohn's and Colitis UK (NACC).

Crohn's and Colitis UK aims to improve life for everyone affected by Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), the most common forms being Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis. Together these conditions affect about 250,000 people in the United Kingdom. For further information on this please visit: www.nacc.org.uk

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. THANK YOU!!
