Story

In April 2010 we will be running the Virgin London Marathon in aid of 'Help for Heroes'. 

'WHAT!' we hear you cry aghast, 'You short-legged, hobbit-footed twins are surely ill-suited to such a feat!' 

And perhaps you are right. We have never been known for our sporting prowess, but in recent years we have developed a bit of a liking for running (our sheer stubborness drags us round...) 

So, with our steely determination and dedicated training we hope to see the finish line (with Paula hot on our heels!) having raised a fair amount of money for Help for Heroes. This charity supports the men and women wounded in the service of our country since 9/11. We consider this to be a fantastic cause and hope that you will help us to raise as much money as possible. 

The money you offer will go directly to the injured soldiers and their families. By offering as much or as little as you can afford you are actively supporting those who need it most. Thank you!

It would be great to see some of you on the day for moral support. Especially if you come with sweets!

Thank you in advance for your generosity,

Rebecca and Jessica.
