Flora London Marathon 2008 · 13 April 2008 ·

OXPIP help parents & their babies to form strong & loving relationships. We offer intensive therapeutic help in the first 2 years in Oxfordshire. We work with parents & infant together, to build on the positive, boost parental confidence & help parents be led by the needs of the baby.

Story

I was never going to repeat 2004's London Marathon attempt...  however, I have now found a charity that I believe truly presents a worthwhile cause to run & raise money for. I am really hoping that you will feel the same & offer some cash to support OXPIP.

The Oxford Parent-Infant Project is a small charity, so any donation you put forward really will make a significant difference. They receive around £200K per year in donations; with your help we can raise a lot more. Like Merriweather, they are in the business of helping others to change the world for the better. Success for Merriweather clients means better business & a more inspired team - success for OXPIP means a greater number of children being brought up in loving & secure families.

Why I believe the impact of OXPIP's work makes this a worthy cause :-)

Early intervention for the child parent society as a whole:

  • Reducing family breakdown
