Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I was lucky enough to win a place in the ballot for the London Marathon this year and I have been training hard since October.  As I have no intention of putting all that training to waste I have decided to run and raise money for  Standing Together Against Domestic Violence.  This is a local charity based in Hammersmith & Fulham with an impressive track record in co-ordinating partnership work covering all aspects of support and advocacy for those whose lives have been affected by domestic violence both in the borough and beyond. 

It would be fantastic if you would sponsor me for the London Marathon to help raise funds for this fantastic local project.

About the charity

Established in 1998, Standing Together Against Domestic Violence coordinates the ground-breaking multi-agency response to domestic violence. Standing Together influences national policy and practice by initiating and driving innovation, providing safer options for women and their children and holding perpetrators accountable. Standing Together builds and supports effective multi agency partnerships throughout the UK to meet the needs of survivors of domestic violence. Standing Together believes that that domestic violence is a serious and high volume crime which no one agency can deal with effectively if acting alone. It destroys families and damages society. The facts about domestic violence are shocking and all communities, classes and ages are affected. 1 in 4 women experience domestic violence. Two women are murdered in the UK by their current or former partner every week. Standing Together trains all agencies to deal with domestic violence effectively and consults with survivors to inform improvements in services.
