Yes I am crazy enough to be doing the Bath Half Marathon, encouraged and motivated by my friend Tessa Hopes. You cant do this sort of challenge without trying to raise a little bit of money for a good cause.
There are many many good causes out there. I have decided to go for a small local charity as the smaller charities sometimes get a bit forgotten.
The Life Project in Bath helps adults with learning disabilities to lead a happy and fulfilling life. The value of engaging in meaningful occupations/activities is fundamental to the philosophy of Occupational Therapy and as an Occupational Therapist it seems particularly fitting for me to raise money for this project.
What your gift could provide:
£10 - contributes to materials for activity groups
£30 - pays an activity leader for 3 hours
£100 - contributes to landscaping and making accessible their new allotment plot
Every little helps. I know there are many many requests for money at the moment so no pressure.
