Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Starting on 15th June, every day for 10 days I am going to be walking a half marathon - one for each of the 10 direct partners that the Methodist Church in Ireland currently supports through World Development and Relief.
So that’s 10 half-marathons of 27,000 steps per walk. Yikes!
I will be doing this safely through my normal daily walk, and laps of the local pitches and Craigavon Lakes which are both very close to my home. My dog Heidi will keep me company throughout, and we are currently in training (I have even got new gutties!). ). Heidi hasn’t raised any objections yet so I am assuming she is onboard….
Every day I will share some information about the partner I am walking for that day, and hopefully you will get an insight into the amazing work being done, even in these difficult times.
Every country like us is suffering in this pandemic, and I know there are many excellent causes that need our support locally, but it’s good to think about others worldwide who may not have the same resources available as we do and may not be able to social distance themselves due to living in densely populated communities.

The smallest amount will make the biggest of difference.

Thank you for your support, Janet
