Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Two years ago one of my best friends persuaded me to join her in completing a 5K run. I had never tried running in my adult life and have memories of avoiding any long distance running in my childhood much preferring other sports such as swimming. Last year I joined her again to take part in a team triathlon being the runner and completing 10k. This year I have been given an amazing opportunity to support the WCTT by running the Virgin London Marathon. 

I work as a specialist nurse at Great Ormond Street Hospital and love in particular working with adolescents. The WCTT supports and encourages disadvantaged young people whether physical, mental, social, financial or those who just struggle to socialise and make friends in involving them in theatre.  They organise and facilitate exciting and innovative theatre education projects.

 Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
