Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

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.

Nordic Walking helped me get back on my feet after two surgeries a few years ago and enabled to make some great friends along the way and improve my fitness.  The Chichester Half Marathon event (for runners) on Sunday 6th October, is also offering a 10-mile walking route for Nordic Walkers so this is a great opportunity for me to stretch out and hopefully raise some funds for the charity Children on the Edge.

My inbox is often active with sponsorship requests for people doing amazing things (running marathons, climbing mountains and cycling for hundreds of miles) so I feel a bit of a fraud asking for sponsorship for just walking 10 miles but every little helps and I am really hoping to push myself and do the 10 miles in under 2.5 hours.  There is a rather large hill in the middle of it!  Honestly!

I would really love it if as many people as possible can sponsor me just £5 as it will all add up and the charity will be so grateful.

I appreciate you reading this and if you're anything like me I tend to close an in-box and forget all about it so please sponsor me straightaway whilst it's fresh in your mind!

Thank you so very much.
