I just wanted to put a post up to say THANK YOU to everyone who donated to my fundraising for Ipswich Deaf Society when I ran this years London Marathon. Although my page is still open for a few more weeks I think I've had the donations that I expected and raised a total of £1984 (including giftaid), my target was £1000 initially so over the moon to have smashed it. We are hoping to start some of the work on the building in the next few weeks so we can provide some more community services. Thank you again |

My names Misty and less than a year ago I took up running again and being a bit mad (so my friends and family tell me) got a place in this years London Marathon, This will be my 1st ever marathon and strangely can’t wait to do it, done a training run of 20 miles and got the same distance planned for this weekend. I’m doing the marathon to raise money for a local charity I’m involved with, Ipswich Deaf Society, we are a small charity who provide support for the local Deaf community and their families. As well as help provide a place for lessons to take place in British Sign Language. We are currently in the process of updating the building we have to make it suitable for our future plans for the charity, but as we rely on donations I’m trying to raise as much as possible to help with this. To add a bit more pressure on myself or maybe being more of a glutton for punishment I set up a football shirt challenge that people can donate to my page specifying ITFC or NCFC with their donation and at the deadline on April 18th the set of fans who have raised the most, I will wear that shirt for the London Marathon. Fortunately I’m in the position where ITFC are winning but hoping that TWTD will hopefully help make that victory a bit more comfortable. If you can help with a donation the link for my fundraising page: https://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/MistySmith Also the club when I was Community Champion in February donated a signed shirt which I will be listing for sale in the next few weeks so will put the link up when I get that going. |
