Story

Hi guys, so I decided its been too long since my last charitable deed and thought I'd aim for the top this time with the killer 26 miles New York Marathon. The charity I'm sponsoring is Mencap,the leading voice of learning disability and everything they do is about valuing and supporting people with a learning disability and their families. Mencap wants a world where people with a learning disability are valued equally, listened to and included, not just dismissed. Mencap's website has many real life stories, both positive and negative.One that really moved me was Emma's Story which you can read here: www.mencap.org.uk/page.asp?id=55 All I need is your full support, donations big or small, to help me reach the meager £3500 target and lets face it, if I can travel half way around the world and run 26 miles surely you can dig deep and find some money to spare for these people. Thank You for visiting this site and takin the time to read this, Rahool
