Story

Hi - thanks very much for visiting my London Marathon sponsorship page.

Well, I did it - and in a reasonably respectable time for an oldie. It was a great experience and everyone's support has been absolutely invaluable - thanks so much, I couldn't have dome it without you. I don't think I'll be doing it again, at least not for a couple of years - but I'll keep in touch and will be sure to let you know if I take leave of my senses again . . .

The money you donated will go specifically to the IOM branch of Samaritans. The IOM Samaritans are all unpaid volunteers who are doing a fantastic job helping people both on and off the Island. 

Thanks again

(Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure.
It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me:
Samaritans gets your money
faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid,
plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.)
