Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Over the past 2 or 3 years, I've taken an interest in running and have run a couple of local marathon events.  

In 2015, I had hoped to run the London Marathon, but sadly, I had to pull out due to injury and have now deferred to the 2016 event.  I would like to use this to raise a significant amount for a charity that does an invaluable work across our country, Hospice UK.

Many of us, and our families have been affected by cancer and other terminal illnesses and the job that the Hospices do across our country allows an element of pain relief and dignity for such family members as well as respite for loving carers. 

In order for me to take part in the London Marathon 2016 with Hospice UK, I have pledged to raise £2000 for them.  This sounds like a massive amount, however, my employer, the Clydesdale Bank plc have agreed that they will match pound for pound, everything that I raise.  So that means, I need to raise £1000 and the bank will double it!
