Charity
Mencap is the voice of learning disability. Everything Mencap does is about valuing and supporting people with a learning disability, and their families and carers. We work with people with a learning disability to change laws and services, challenge prejudice and directly support thousands of people to live their lives as they choose. There isn't room to list everything we do here, but there's loads of information on our website http://www.mencap.org.uk

London Marathon 2010
My page: http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/PeterFinn
Thanks for taking the time to visit our fundraising page.
This is the picture of the two of us taken last September during the Atlantic Coast Challenge, which entailed running 3 marathons in 3 consecutive days, a total of 78.6 miles. It was a very difficult set of marathons as there was over 10,500ft of ascents on some very testing paths.
However, back to the streets of London. This will be my 4th consecutive London Marathon and James' 3rd. We have so far raised over £13,400 for Mencap.
This year we will again be trying for personal best times of under 3hrs 47mins. We will also need to beat the target set by Mencap of £3,200, so we will need your help. Please donate what you can; the children are the real winners.
Through Virgin Money Giving, you can sponsor us 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. We really appreciate all your support and thank you for any donations.
