Hi Bev,

Have you seen the following section of Diabetes UK website?

http://www.diabetes.org.uk/Get_involved/Raising_funds/

I raised money by running in the Great South Run last year. It was only a few months after my diagnosis and I was really touched by how many people donated because it was something that affected me directly rather than jsut a worthy cause I was supporting. I saw it as being self-interest:D It was great so see others running for the same charity and get the cheers as I went round.

Whatever you decide, good luck!
