Story

Hi, Thanks for having a look at my page.

In April I will be running the London Marathon for a very special charity called Whizz-Kidz. 

 

The charity gives disabled children the gift of being a child by simply providing mobility equipment, training and work experience.  Disabled young people are over twice as likely as their non-disabled peers not to be in education, employment or training and it costs on average over three times as much to raise a disabled child, this has led to over 70,000 disabled kids in the UK waiting for the right wheelchair. 

For these reasons and many more I feel Whizz-Kidz is a great charity that deserves your generousity - and the pain of me running a marathon – so please do donate and help us make a difference to the life of so many disabled children. 

 

Thanks, Tom.
