Charity

Thank you to everyone who contributed money for the British Heart Foundation charity – very much appreciated.
Half Marathon is off this year, due to both of us having knee problems … specialist says no to half marathon *sobs*
However, all of the money collected so far has been passed to the charity, the Necklaces from Claire Lois are still for sale, and of course, we’ll be doing something equally ridiculous next year (assuming we are both fit enough to do it !!).
Thanks once again.
More old news:
Unfortunately, following the recent volcano events in Iceland, Claire has decided not to attend the 4 day trek across Iceland … However, in it’s place, we are both doing the Cardiff Half Marathon in October 2010, still for British Heart Foundation. Having raised £203.36 on the last fundraising page (and just giving not letting us change the content), it seemed a shame not to keep with the same charity.
A new sponsorship page will be setup shortly, if you wish to donate. The necklaces are still available for purchase.
Further details to follow, soon …
Old news:
In July 2010, my girlfriend is taking part in a 4 day trek across Iceland for the British Heart Foundation – a link to the BHF website with the details is HERE
In order to raise the required sponsorship for the charity, we’ve got a number of fundraising ideas taking place.
Until the end of May, you will be able to buy necklaces* from us. At least 50% of the cost is going direct to the BHF – details soon. Pictures HERE
Apparantly, there are also such crazy events as necklace parties (all new to me), but I’ll go along with the idea as it’s for charity !!
We are hoping to arrange a fete during April/May, with many fun activities – again, majority of the monies made here will go direct to BHF – further details to follow.
We have also set up an online sponsorship form, if you feel like donating a few quid —> Just Giving Online Form
* The necklaces are from Claire Lois (Stall 23 @ The Rhiw Shopping Centre, Bridgend). There are plenty of different designs, colours, lengths, etc. Every necklace we sell will come in a clear bag, with a Claire Lois business card. They also now sell handbags, purses, umbrellas, luguage and more …
