Thanks for visiting our fundraising page.

Having done the Great North Run last October we've decided to do the Great South Run this year as it's much closer and doesn't involve  an 8hr drive immediately after running 13miles.

We've decided this year to go for joint sponsorship in the hope we can raise more money and have chosen Julia's House Hospice as our charity. We've gone for this as it's a local charity based in Poole and so the money we raise is going to help children in the local area rather than going into some giant pot.

Julia's House is Dorset's only hospice dedicated to children with life-limiting conditions. The majority of the children they care for are unlikely to live beyond the age of 18. The children's hospice complements the work of the Julia's House Community Team, which consists of 65 nurses and carers who travel the county, providing life-changing support for families in their own homes. It will cost Julia's House £2.4m to provide their services in 2009 

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Julia's House gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor us now!
