Charity
Poverty is an outrage against humanity. It robs people of dignity, freedom and hope, of power over their own lives. Christian Aid has a vision - an end to poverty - and we believe that vision can become a reality.

Dave's London Marathon Fundraising Page
Hi, thanks for visiting my page. Through Virgin Money Giving, you can sponsor me and donations will be quickly processed and passed to charities. Virgin Money Giving is a not for profit organisation and will claim gift aid on a charity's behalf where the donor is eligible for this. I really appreciate all your support and thank you for any donations.
I have to confess that I've wanted to run the London Marathon since it began. It is only this year, finally, that I've managed to get a place through the ballot!
I have been keeping a record of some of my training in the months leading up to the marathon, so if you're interested check out my blog at: http://daveslmblog.blogspot.com
I am running the 2010 marathon for Christian Aid. I have been a long term supporter of this chrarity and hopefully together we can raise a lot of money for their work. If you want to know more about Christian aid you can check out their website at: www.christianaid.org.uk
Thank you to everyone for your interest and support. I look forward to seeing you someone along the route on April 25th.
