Hi everyone! Thanks for visiting our fundraising page.

As many of you will now know, Sarah and Kris successfully completed the London marathon on Sunday 22nd of April. In scorching temperatures of up to 23 degress we ran round in 5 hours 4 mins and 4 hours 48 mins respectively.
We are still raising money so please dig deep and reward us with a donation!

Our Marathon challenge is fast approaching and we can’t quite believe it’s got this far - it seemed such a good idea whilst lying on a beach in France!!
We have been training hard for our 26.2 mile sprint through London, and would really appreciate your support to meet our target for charity and motivate us across the line.
The money we are raising is to help development in the countries of Southern Africa. HIV/AIDS is one of the biggest obstacles to development in the region. Important progress has been made in developing drugs to combat this disease, including drugs to prevent disease transferal from mother to baby, but access to these drugs is still widely unavailable. Of those children infected only 1% have access to the treatment drugs required. ACTSA seeks to ensure that access to treatment is broadened and that those most vulnerable to the disease are offered the correct protection.
So please dig deep and thanks very much for your support!!
Sarah and Kris xx
