Magic 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 Cash for Kids raising money for Action For Kids.
From April 17th I will be crawling the streets of London as Brian the snail from the Magic Roundabout, with my friends Florence, Zebedee, Dylan and Dougal to keep me company. I will be crawling a mile a day, so please dig deep and give generously and help raise money for disabled children and young people.
If you have time to come and visit me I would love to see you! Keep track of where I am http://www.actionforkids.org
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.

Ian Goulden £10.00 15.06.11 I was sad to hear that you were sacked for 'not raising enough money' after all your hard work. Seems a bit small minded. |

|
moulesy £10.00 (+ £2.50 giftaid) 14.06.11 Hi Scott, I'm donating in the hope that with others you can reach your target amount thereby benefiting the Action for Kids charity and embarrassing the Ermintrudes out of the Action for Kids Trustees. Maybe next year you could do the marathon as Zebedee |
|
D McNicoll £10.00 (+ £2.50 giftaid) 14.06.11 For your magnanimity and ability to see the bigger picture - the people you are trying to help. As impressive in its own way as the marathon crawl. |
|
Credulous £10.00 14.06.11 I feel bad that I forgot to sponsor you when I heard about your incredible stunt. Sadly, your sacking is an unwelcome reminder. How much does the London Marathon make off charities?.. |

Paul Forrest £10.00 (+ £2.50 giftaid) 14.06.11 How can they sack you after what you went through? Please reconsider AFK trustees! |

Anonymous £20.00 (+ £5.00 giftaid) 14.06.11 You have been a star...couldn't believe what happened. Here's hoping everyone else who reads the news feels the same as me and gives. Stay smilin' Mr Snail!! |
|
Josh Davey £5.00 14.06.11 Having read your story in the Guardian, I admire your bravery and hope that you continue the great work! It shows great integrity to be so composed when faced with such harsh treatment. I'm sorry, but with my Student life a fiver is all could afford! :) |
|
Richard Seldon £5.00 (+ £1.25 giftaid) 14.06.11 A bit harsh....(probably a stunt to get people donating ;-) Well if it works :-) How about doing something for Wateraid next (perhaps paddling one of the Lakes using a spoon...as a paddle, not the kayak!) |
|
Snails friend! £5.00 (+ £1.25 giftaid) 14.06.11 Poor Mr Snail! |
|
Matt Boxall £10.00 (+ £2.50 giftaid) 14.06.11 Ditto what Steve H said below. Great cause and great feat for a snail (excuse pun) |
|
Steve Harvey £10.00 (+ £2.50 giftaid) 14.06.11 I hope the disappointing news story of the sacked snail generates some positive interest and further donations from the British public. Respect for all your hard work and massive Charity achievements. I'm sure with some 'air time' money would roll in! |

Pia family £10.00 (+ £2.50 giftaid) 21.05.11 What an inspiration - I ran in the marathon and that seemed tough enough, but what you have done is incredible! And you have raised a fantastic amount even if you didn't hit target :-) Well done x |
|
Booshruth £20.00 (+ £5.00 giftaid) 20.05.11 Well Done. Quite amazing. But also 'cos we missed your Iron Giant year - one of our all time favourites. See your our quite an imaginative man for which the kids are certainly benefitting. |
