Staying the Distance
Anna Dore of the LP Gas Association (LPGA)
will be participating in this year’s London Marathon, which
takes place on April 22. Many of you will know Anna, who joined
the LPGA in 1999 and has acted as membership secretary, conference/meetings
organiser, etc, over the years.
“I’ve been a keen runner for many
years and have previously taken part in races of distances from
5km to the marathon, although
I have a particular liking for off-road runs that involve plenty
of mud, water, hills and beaches, and lots of sweat – the
original dirty weekend!” said Anna.
This year, Anna will
be running her first marathon for eight years in support of Julia’s
House, a registered charity that cares for life-limited and life-threatened
children in Dorset.
The charity supports children and their families in their own
homes and also at Julia’s House itself, giving a much-needed
break to parents.
“I hope that those who know me, and
hopefully some who don’t!,
will give generously, particularly as my office colleagues would
like to point out that I am getting on a bit and my legs might
give out before I get the chance to do another one!” said
Anna.
If you would like to make a donation, please
go to the Julia’s
House website at www.julias-house.org or send a cheque made payable
to Julia’s House to Anna Dore, c/o LP Gas Association,
Pavilion 16 Headlands Business Park, Salisbury Road, Ringwood
BH24 3PB.
