Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

THE CHALLENGE  - ON 27th August I am taking part in the South Coast Ultra Marathon which is a 100k hike/run/jog starting in Eastbourne heading along the coast for 62 miles until I reach Arundel. It's going to be a continuous hike (no running for me!) and will take at least 24hrs.

I've chosen this challenge as I wanted to do something worthwhile in order to raise money to help Jigsaw (Southeast) support local children through the loss of a loved one. 

When I started volunteering at Jigsaw in June 2015 I was amazed at how many children local to me have lost someone close them and even more shocked to realise it is quite often their mum/dad/sibling. They provide such a great service to children and young people to help them through the bereavement process and immediately thought of my boys and couldn't imagine how hard they would find it cope if they were ever in that situation.

All the support workers at Jigsaw are so committed to their work but wouldn't be able to provide such great support without the funds for resources so please donate if you can, every little helps.
