Running for Diana fund

Teddington runner Sue Brown has joined a team which will be running the London Marathon in memory of Diana, Princess of Wales on Sunday, April 26. They will raise money for the late Princess' Memorial Fund.

Sue, 46, of Elleray Road, said: "I, like many millions of other people all over the world, was touched by her during her life and greatly saddened by her death and feel that the London Marathon is something she would have loved to join in so it is a fitting tribute that the Memorial Fund will benefit from it."
