Hi all,
my name is Christina Kingsman and I am running the Milton Keynes half marathon on 1st May 2017. This is only my second half marathon, the first I ran just for fun... although it actually hurt!
This time I am raising money for MK ACT who provide vital advice, support and safe accommodation in the Milton Keynes area for families leaving abusive partners.
MK ACT are a charity close to my heart I have worked with MK ACT (or Women's Aid as it was called then) for 11 years, as a Family Support Worker, before becoming a teacher, and know personally the great effort, time, patience and support the team have for this cause.
Like any charity they rely on volunteers, donations and fundraisers to keep the service going and this year they celebrated their 40th birthday. The need for support is as pressing as ever as every day they receive calls from those needing help.
Please think of my weary legs and donate what you can to help raise funds.
Thank you!
Chris
