My marathon has been picked and registered for.
Training plan is set and already in the process of.
The final piece of the jigsaw was to find a cause that I could raise money for.
That final piece has been found and I am pleased to announce that I will be running for The Blurt Foundation. I first heard of them via Twitter and was so impressed with what they are doing that I felt I wanted to help them. They provide a mentor scheme via their website for those affected depression and they work tirelessly to tackle the stigma of depression.
They need funds to cover the costs of the CRB checks, volunteer training and to help develop their schools programme.
Jayne Hardy is the force behind it, alongside her husband Dom. It all started with a blog post on www.beachbumbeautyblog.com and the rest as they say is history. Not only do they sound like an amazing couple with a fantastic vision but they are also a young, local organisation.
I look forward to being able to raise as much money as I can over the course of the next 5 months for this very worthwhile organisation. If you would like to sponsor me and have a paypal account, you can pay the money in online at www.blurtitout.org. Otherwise I will be out and about with my sponsor forms so look out for me!!!
Thank you.
We are so excited that you have chosen to run for us, thank you ever so much and if there's anything we can do to support you please let me know x
