My story

 

I did it !  4 hours, 27 mins and 7 seconds, thank you all for your support so far, it has been amazing and I am over the moon about how much money we have raised for Shelter.  THANK YOU!

The training and the fundraising have gone so well that I have increased my target from £1600 to £2000! 

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.  I will be running the London Marathon on the 26th April 2009.  This a big challenge for me as I have never run more than 13.1 miles before, I am determined, excited and looking forward to the whole experience hugely!!

To gain my place I have pledged to raise a minimum of £1600 for the charity Shelter.  This works out as 160 people donating £10 each.  Could you be one of those people?  Or perhaps half a person, or even a whole family of people!  All donations no matter how small or how large will go to help the work the work of Shelter.

Shelter's vision is that everyone should have a home.  Bad housing wrecks lives.
• One child in seven is growing up in accommodation that is temporary, overcrowded, or in bad repair.
• 1.6 million households in England are on the waiting list for a council home.
• 93,000 homeless households in England are stuck in temporary accommodation

Bad housing and homelessness is robbing people of security, health, and a fair chance in life. For more information on the work that Shelter do and the advice they offer please visit www.shelter.org.uk
 
Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Shelter gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!
