It's the 11 th hour and I'm trying to raise as close to £500 as possible in the week leading up to my Royal Parks half marathon on Sunday 11 Oct. Every penny counts so even a very little donation will be much appreciated.

All the funds raised will go to the Starfish Greathearts Foundation, committed to bringing life, hope and opportunity to children in southern who have been orphaned or made vulnerable by HIV/AIDS. www.starfishcharity.org

Thanks for your support.
Sylvia
