2 Sponsored Half Marathons

"Last year, I ran the Birmingham Half Marathon in 2 hours 16 minutes. It was miles further than I had ever ran previously & was actually my first race since school over 20 years ago, so I was very pleased to finish! This year I`m training hard and hope to complete both races in under 2 hours. I`ll be running in my Vegan Runners UK vest and hope to dispel the myths about vegans being unfit!!

On 1st Nov 2008, MVC`s first festival attracted 1,200 people in total and I was delighted that many hundreds of these were non-vegans. They enjoyed the mountains of delicious food, were spoilt for choice by the stalls and packed into the talks and cookery demos, eager to learn the many benefits of vegan lifestyles. This was awareness raising on a massive scale, which is what MVC is all about. Our small team has the experience and commitment to organise another vegan festival which will succeed in changing many people`s lives for the better, but we need your support to help us reach as many non-vegans as possible. Please give what you can to help pay for printing, press adverts etc.

I am passionate about green issues and have recently stood for the Green Party in 2 local elections in Redditch. I was delighted with the results, particularly in the county council election, when over 16% of voters in my division cast a vote for me, a remarkable outcome. With the General Election approaching, I`ve pledged my interest in standing again. There is a democratic selection process but with nobody else in Redditch wanting to stand, I`m 99.9% sure that I`ll be selected as the Green Party candidate! This is a fantastic opportunity to promote green issues & increase support for the Green Party. I`m looking forward to giving everyone in Redditch the chance to vote for a sustainable, fair and compassionate society! Sadly, my local Green Party branch has very limited funds so I need to raise money for my election deposit, leaflet printing etc.

Please sponsor me whatever you can afford. Thankyou".
