About my charity : WellChild WellChild
WellChild is the national charity for sick children and provides practical help for children and their families as they deal with serious illness and complex conditions. Funded solely by the people of the UK, for more than 30 years, WellChild has been instrumental in saving the lives of thousands of sick children across a range of conditions covering the three key areas of:

Care - WellChild has created a team of WellChild Children's Nurses who work with sick children and their families in the community to give care and practical support to children living at home with complex care needs.

Support - To provide practical and tangible support to young people and families, WellChild has created its Helping Hands scheme which enlists the practical support of volunteers right across the country to tackle one-off projects in the homes of sick children.

Research - WellChild's dedication to helping sick children both now and in the future is shown by the charity's investment of more than £20 million in life-changing and ground-breaking children's health research projects.

My personal message:

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

In this my 50th year I am commiting to my first (And only time will tell but perhaps my only! ) Marathon

I am putting  the effort in and have done a few Half marathons in preparation - perhaps foolishly I have set myself the target of under 4 hours (late revision new forecast now 4.30 minutes !)(and then people tell me you cant even run for the first few miles in the london Marathon)

Please support me but more importantly Well Child . We will all know a family who has had to support their children through long term care or sickness - Well Child tries to provide additional support for such families.


Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: WellChild gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!
