Also details of fun run on 7th jan 12
I am Mandy Turner, Phil's wife, and he has asked me to contact you about a run he mentioned at your Xmas do which is taking place on 7th Jan.
It is to help raise funds for my friend's nephew, Charlie Randell, who suffers with cerebral palsy. He has the chance to go to the States for a life enhancing operation that may allow him to walk independently for the first time in his 12 years of life. it will cost £50,000 and the family desperately want assistance to raise the money.
There is no registration fee, and nobody is obliged to raise sponsorship either - just a donation to join the run would be very gratefully received.
The less able (and that is me too) can walk!
We are meeting at 11 am at Bexley Cricket Club in Manor Way DA5 3QG. Fancy dress is optional, but all adds to the fun. This is intended as a 5K run, but the more enthusiastic can probably do 2 or 3 circuits if they wish!
Donations can be made to:
The Charlie Randell Fund (sort code 40-19-04 account no. 92000741)
49 Joydens Wood Road, Bexley DA5 2HU
