Birmingham Half Marathon · 26 October 2008 ·

It's bewildering and unsettling for anyone going into hospital but especially for children and that is why we are a fundraising hospital. We raise funds to enhance the experience of our patients by providing state of the art medical equipment and facilities and creating a child-friendly environment.

Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

I am attempting for the first time to run/jog/stagger 13.1 miles in Birmingham's first Half Marathon  in aid the Kidney Kids Appeal at Birmingham Children's Hospital.   I am joining teamblinddave - the amazing runner who ran 7 marathons over 7 Continents, in 7 days.!!! (I may actually  take 7 hours to do just this one!)

  When Isabella my daughter (now 9) was 9 months old she spent 2 nights in the Birmingham Children's Hospital and after the initial scare of meningitis,  was found to have nothing seriously wrong with her.   She was very lucky  -  unlike so many of the other babies and  children who spend days, weeks, months here.    I felt vey humbled to see how these children (and their parents) coped with their illnesses.   I know I am blessed to have  4 healthy children .


Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Birmingham Children's Hospital Charities 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.
