AN East Huntspill charity worker is gearing up for this year's London Marathon to raise money for the cause.
Debbie O'Keefe is collecting cash for Secret World and has already received a big boost in the form of a pledge of sponsorship from Sanders GardenWorld.
The garden centre is sponsoring Debbie, 34, £200 to run the race because her cause is one of its chosen charities for 2007.
She said: "I haven't ever taken part in a race before so this is a massive challenge for me. I'm really looking forward to it and knowing that I'm raising money for such a good cause is what's motivating me.
"I've worked at Secret World for 15 years so I know first hand the invaluable service it provides across the south west."
