Peter's Year of Endurance - help stop domestic abuse
Fundraising for Equation
Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
NEXT EVENT:
February - I will complete my final charity Half Marathon in a kilt and it is the same one I started with last year - The Coventry Half
I am committing to support a local East Midlands charity called Equation who work tirelessly to stop domestic violence and abuse from being present in the lives of women, men and children. They work with victims, families and schools to make a huge difference.
Every month from March 2015 I will be completing a minimum of one monthly endurance activity and I'd ask for you to support me as I seek donations each month to support this charity. I started the challenge on March 1st with the Coventry Half Marathon and will plan to complete my year of endurance by throwing myself out of a plane in February 2016.
