#FundraisingFriday: Camilla’s Story

April 5, 2019

Camilla has been kind enough to share her exciting fundraising plans with CLAPA. She’s running not one race, but FIVE, all in support of our vital services.

For 2019 I decided to run five half marathons in five months to raise money for CLAPA.

Running has long been a hobby of mine and I decided it was time to use that hobby to support the work that CLAPA does. The charity has always been very dear to my heart and they provided a lot of support to my sister, who was born with a bilateral cleft lip and palate, and my family when I was young, so this is a chance to give something back.

From January until May 2019, I’ll be running circa 13 miles five times, all around the South East of England. These include; the Victoria Park Half Marathon (Jan), the Brighton Half Marathon (Feb), the Colchester Half Marathon (March), the Putney & Fulham Half Marathon (April) and finally the Lee Valley Velo Park Half Marathon (April).

I’ll have some friends joining me for some and others on my own. My target is £500 but anything over and above this would be a huge achievement. All your support and donations are greatly appreciated.
