For you generous few
« on: September 07, 2013, 12:04:44 pm »
Guys.. I'm doing the Great North Run next Sunday on my 21st Birthday..so I thought what better way to start my 21st than a nice 13.1 mile run through the streets of Newcastle... I'm doing the Great North Run in aid of Support Our Soldiers, even though combat operations are coming to an end in Afghanistan, there are still lads and lasses out there and we should be supporting them until they're back on home soil. Support our soldiers send out 'care packages' to our troops wherever they're deployed with home comforts in that aren't readily available while on deployment. If you can, please text MARC63 £1, £2, £3, £4, £5 or £10 to 70070

Or visit https://www.justgiving.com/Marc-21/

I have £200 on a sponsor form and a rather dismal £37 on my JustGiving page... Could you guys please lend a hand. Even £1 will help!!

Thanks in advance!

Marc

No worries, every little helps. My justgiving is https://www.justgiving.com/DYoung80/ don't feel obliged though I've pre-ordered a PS4 and am raffling it off at £5 a ticket. Sell 200 = £1000 for charity :smiley:
