Hi Everyone,
When my Church asked me to take part in half of a Marathon I thought they were going to share a chocolate bar with me!
I never normally ask for donations for the things I do, as I know everyone is feeling the credit crunch. But this is such a worthwhile cause that will have an amazing domino effect on benefitting our local community.
The Jerico Foundation helps disadvantaged individulas overcome barriers to become fulfilled, skilled and employed. One of their projects is the 'Kingsbridge Project', who I will be running for:
Kingsbridge Community Sports is a partnership of local organisations who want to develop the Holders Lane Playing Fields at the back of Canon Hill Park. An exciting new venue will be created, providing a large range of sports and leisure activities for the local community. At the moment the fields and pavilion are owned by Birmingham City Council and are in poor condition. Kingsbridge are in the final stages of talks with the council about taking control of the site and developing it for and with the local community. As a key partner of Kingsbridge, The Jericho Foundation is handling the fundraising arrangements for this event.

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 and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So no one handles any money, which makes it really simple.
Please dig deep. Lots of Love,
