A cheeky request

If you’ve been enjoying my blog then you’ll know I’m training for the London Marathon both as a personal challenge and to raise funds for Asthma UK.

It would be fantastic if you could support me in this. If you would like to donate you can do so via my Virgin Money page.

Remember that I am paying for my flights, hotel, entry fee and other expenses myself – 100% of your donation will go towards helping raise funds for and awareness of the work Asthma UK is doing.
