2016 fundraising in memory of Pardeep

Jaya Nagra trained for the London Marathon, but had an ankle injury three days prior to the run and was unable to run. Family, friends and work colleagues ran a baton marathon for her which included Kully and Jayaโ€™s mum Neelam! It raised great awareness and even more money! ! She was disappointed having trained for months in the rain, cold weather, but she raised ยฃ2,185.00 which has gone into the core funding. Let’s hope she raises even more for her second attempt next year.
