Jim
Portus,
Chairman
of the Brixham Mission Local Advisory
Committee says:
I am running the London Marathon
on
April 26th for the Fishermen's Mission. I have a page at

Deep
sea fishing is a hazardous occupation, ten times more dangerous
than mining.
Every year there are boat losses and fishermen killed or seriously
injured many beyond working again.
The care for survivors, widows and children, can go on for years.
The Mission steps in during tragedy to provide immediate care,
material, emotional and pastoral support, as well as offering
expert guidance through the benefits' system and sourcing long-term
grants.
The mission strives to provide assistance whenever and wherever
it is needed, spreading care through over 70 UK ports and harbours.
Now you can help.
Please,
if you'd like to sponsor me to run the Flora London Marathon
for the ninth time on April 26th 2009, to raise much-needed
funds for the Fishermen's Mission, nothing could be easier than
to donate on-line at the following link:

Or you could send a cheque payable to RNMDSF to me
