Our Best Contribution Ever!
Taking advantage of London’s Xmas Lunch, plant hire owner Justin Ffrench made this contribution. Justin presented us with fabulous cheque - £20,600.
This was a stupendous effort on the part of a truly ‘big’ man who had never run before. And many thanks to his generous sponsors.

Paul Writes:
I will be 30 by the time the marathon comes around, been with Costain since graduation with a degree in Civil Engineering from Surrey University in 2003. Married with no children at present.
I really decided to run the marathon as I think I panicked at the thought of being 30, now I am in, I am panicking at the thought of having to do the marathon.......
Keen squash player, skiier, golfer, wake boarder, plus any other sports I find the time to do.
Enthusiastic DIY fan, love to get my hands dirty in renovating my houses to a high standard.
Enjoy going and eating out, the odd drink and generally enjoying life to the full.

About
Just Giving is an organisation dedicated to maximising the contributions to charities such as our Benevolent Fund. You probably know that the Treasury allows charities to claim back the tax element of contributions. That’s 28 pence for every pound, well worth having but quite difficult for a ‘volunteers’ organisation like ours to achieve.
‘Just Giving’ takes care of the nuts and bolts, and it’s fun!
Whoever you are, whatever you’re doing to raise money can appear on your Just Giving page.
Last year Kevin Minton ran the marathon for our Benevolent Fund.
