Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page in aid of Jasmine Foundation.

I’m running my first ever half marathon, in my 60s, for the amazing Jasmine Foundation and would really appreciate if you could donate to the fantastic cause.

The charity was set up by the Macquaker family in memory of Jasmine. They aim to assist people in need, provide a resource for information around adolescent depression, and to help reduce suicide.

Jasmine had an independent playful spirit, she was caring and thoughtful with a wicked sense of humour and quirky view of the world. Creativity was her superpower. For her it was an escape from the world, therefore her healing power or secret tool. Jika was in her class at school.

Training for this has been mentally and physically challenging for me but it’s going to be worth it for such a great charity. It really motivated me hearing the Chief Executive from The Haven talk about the difference the money from Jasmine Foundation has made to so many families.

Wish me luck!
