Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

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.

In the years leading up to the sudden loss of my beautiful Mum, she spent several months over in Mombasa helping this wonderful charity. The children and staff she met over there were very close to her heart and, if she was still here, I don't doubt she would have been back over there to offer them more of her love and support (several times probably)! I was supposed to take part in a half marathon last March (2014) to mark the 5 year anniversary of her passing, but I sprained my ankle the week before the race and then, well, I returned to my slovenly ways and hung up my running shoes. Now, 12+ months on and injury free I will be running (read: slow jogging) the Freckleton Half Marathon on 21/06/2015 in memory of this exceptionally wonderful woman and in aid of the charity she loved so much. Please just give whatever you can, every penny really will help!

Thank you!
