You guys are already the best for the generous donations you've made so far, but if you needed a good reason here's why I'm asking for your hard-earned moolah.

On 26th May me and my old mum are running (staggering) the Edinburgh Marathon to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support. Having lost a friend to the disease a few years ago, we wanted to do something for the charity which does fantastic work for both sufferers and their families and this seemed as good an idea as any. At the time. Gulp.

To see more of what they do please visit their website: http://www.macmillan.org.uk/Home.aspx

But really, you don't need any more persuading than that do you? :) xx

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 and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
