Thank you already to those individuals and organisations who have made donations - both considerable and small!
Individual folk...
are doing all sorts of things to raise money for us:
Charlie (5) and Joseph (7) Helliwell sold unwanted toys at the Underbank Chapel, Stannington, Table Top Sale.
Stella Burney, Nightingale Centre Manager, said thank you to Maggie Lowthian for the splendid patches on her damaged favourite dungarees with a donation to SACH... and is entering the Endurer Challenge for which she hopes to get sponsorship on behalf of the 'Send A Child to Hucklow Fund.' Anyone interested in supporting Stella in this grueling event can do so by visiting the Nightingale Centre web site www.thenightingalecentre.org.uk
Some people have “Jars of Grace” to collect small change...
“...With less than three months to go, I have launched my London Marathon Virgin Money Giving page.
I run regularly, but this is the first time I have asked for sponsorship for a long time. I would be grateful for any donations. See http://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/DavidMOgden
I am also pleased to have received a message of support from David Bedford. See: http://www.marathonnewstv.com/?f=David%20M&;l=Ogden&v=DavidMOgden&n=1
Please feel free to publicise these links. I have prepared a paper sponsor form as well for people who prefer to donate by cash or cheque. See [ Sponsor Form ].
Thank you for your support.
