EXCITING NEWS!  I’m running the London Marathon with my Dad!  VERY exciting & nerve racking for me.....lol! My Dad (James Tuner) has completed the London Marathon five times...and now I’ve got the chance to run with him. It’s my First marathon!  It’s an amazing opportunity for me to do this with my Dad...and I’m asking for support from you all.

We are raising money for The Trussell Trust  - who’s biggest project so far is UK Foodbanks and they work to empower local communities to combat poverty . Trussell Trust foodbanks provide a minimum of three days emergency food and support to people experiencing crisis in the UK. Care professionals such as doctors, health visitors, social workers, CAB and police identify people in crisis and issue them with a foodbank voucher. Foodbanks partner with a wide range of care professionals who are best placed to assess need and make sure that it is genuine. Your money will go towards buying foods & these foods will go to the right people who need it.

Growing up in South Africa – poverty was sadly a common reality for many people.... we now live in the UK and poverty is STILL an issue!  POVERTY is not choosey. Being able to still support those in need and create a step towards the end of poverty means so much! No matter what country, religion or race...poverty could affect us all...I would really appreciate YOUR support in raising funds for Food bank! My dad & I will complete the 26.2 miles of the London Marathon....and our goal is to raise as much money as we can.....with YOUR help each mile we complete will be another family, baby, grandparent fed a hot meal .....ANY amount donation is very much appreciated! Thank you all! ;-) Love Michelle & Jim
