Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I will be running my first Half Marathon on the 26th October 2014 to raise money for an amazing charity Bodie Hodges Foundation.
The aim of the Foundation is to help families who have unfortunately suffered the loss of a child and to raise awareness of the importance of organ donation.
Nick Hodges founded the charity after losing his beautiful boy, Bodie. Following such heart ache, Nick and his family were inspired to help others who have suffered the same loss - the loss of a child. Their aim is to raise £150,000 for the foundation in order buy a holiday home and create a haven for families to use after they have lost a child under the age of 18 years.
I am hoping to raise as much as possible to contribute towards achieving this and to generate as much awareness about the foundation as we can.
Bodie helped save many other children's lives by donating his organs to other sick children who desperately needed a new organ. By simply signing up to the organ donor register you can help save lives.
Any donation made to the charity will be gratefully received. I have never ran a half marathon so this will be a huge challenge for me! In advance, I thank you for your support - I will definitely need it!
