Story
In the run up to my fiftieth birthday, I am raising money for two charities close to my heart.
So please, no birthday gifts in September, but please consider donating if you can to one of these brilliant causes.
I'm going to play my part and attempt to run 50 miles between 26 July and 26 September ( this year, I've managed 100 miles since January, so I'm going to have to step it up!).
The charities I'm supporting:
This page:
Music for the Many is a charity in Todmorden that gives children free music lessons and provides free instruments. It is run by Daniel Bath, an inspiring musician and teacher, who you may have seen on Channel 4's The Piano (he's Lucy's teacher). I'm volunteering on a project with them over the next three years - they are a brilliant organisation.
