Story
Thanks fortaking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Today andevery day, at least two children in the UK will be diagnosed with a liverdisease. Most childhood liver diseases are life threatening; all mean alifetime of care. There are over 100 liver diseases that can affectbabies, children or young people.
Children’s Liver Disease Foundation(CLDF) is a unique charity that takes action against the effects of childhoodliver disease, providing vital information, emotional support, research fundsand a voice for all families, children and young people affected.
CLDF is acharity close to my heart. Our six year old daughter Isha suffers with a childhoodliver condition called biliary atresia. She has already undergone seven lifesavingsurgeries, including a liver transplant. Isha has shown incredible courage and strength in her very short life and gives hope to many.

I have set myself a huge challengeof undertaking my first running event, the iconic London Marathon, in April2016 to raise funds and awareness for this extremely important cause.
I know that every pennyraised for CLDF makes a real difference to thousands of families (over 75% oftheir income comes from fundraising activities and donations), therefore anydonation you are able to make in support of my challenge would be greatlyappreciated.
A massivethank you in advance for your kind support and a heartfelt prayer to the amazing people who are going to undertake challenges to help me reach my target and beyond!!💗 watch this space ........
