Hello!!!
Thanks for taking an interest in my page for the London Marathon 🏃♀️
I was fortunate enough to receive a marathon place for the wonderful charity Barnardo’s! After reading about Barnardo’s I applied to become apart of the fundraising team and make a conscious effort to raise the amount needed to compete in the London Marathon. I am aware this is asking a lot, but I believe the work and dedication from the charity provides essential safeguarding and support to children and young people in both the UK and Worldwide. Most people are unaware that Barnardo's is the oldest and largest children's charity in the UK, driving commitment, compassion and care. I will be echoing these values as part of my training to run the London marathon. If you feel you could support me by donating, I would greatly appreciate any amount you are willing to give 💚 I will leave you with the mission statement of Barnardo’s:
We’ve always been driven by supporting children, young people and families who need us because we know that when you change a childhood, you change a life. And that’s still true today.
When life gets tough or it feels like there’s nowhere to turn, we’re here. We make sure children and young people feel safer, happier, healthier and more hopeful, by directly supporting them and their families with specialist services, raising awareness and campaigning to change things for the better.
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.
