Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
On the 26/4/2025 I will be running in the Lee Valley Velopark Half marathon hoping to raise a bit of money for 2 charities, Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital & Tommy's Baby Charity.
In 2003 I was diagnosed with a benign tumour & to cut a long story short I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for Great Ormond Street. The work the doctors & nurses do there is unmatched & for me it would be great to try & give something back.
The second charity I'm running for is Tommy's Baby Charity, Tommy's is the largest UK pregnancy and baby loss charity, funding research into stillbirth, premature birth and miscarriage and providing trusted pregnancy and baby loss information and support. This charity supported very close friends of mine & it would mean a lot to try and raise some funding for a very worthy cause.
As I am donating to 2 charities, I unfortunately have to set up 2 Justgiving pages as i cant split the donations, so if you can donate (no matter how big or small) id really appreciate if you could take time out to split it between the 2 charities.
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.
Thank you for taking time out to read through this,
