Story

Double Your Money!  Please help me reach the target of £2500 .... and I will match the donations £ for £. Yes £ for £!!  I have never run a standalone marathon before so it is going to be real challenge for me. 

Action Medical Research is an amazing, hidden gem of a medical research charity.  Research they funded was instrumental in establishing the polio vaccine and developed the ultra sound for medical use.  They discovered the link between folic acid preventing spina bifida and developed the cooling cap which is now used in every neonatal unit in the UK ..... and so much more besides.  

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
