Story

Hi, thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

My name is Becky and I challenged myself to raise money for our injured service personnel. On Sunday 13th June 2010 I ran the Redcar Half Marathon for Help for Heroes to show my support for troops wounded in combat. 

With having close links with the military myself, I know how hard the service men and women work to serve our country. To show my support and gratitude for these brave people, I wanted to raise as much money as I could to help them through times of need.

I ran the 13.2 mile course in 2 hours, 11 minutes and 4 seconds, and am so pleased to have raised £732 for a charity close to my heart.

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.
