I WOULD like to invite East Lancashire runners who have been accepted in the forthcoming London Marathon and others in the region to join me and go the extra mile - by using their place to help raise funds for the Children's Society, which works with vulnerable children and young people in schools, on the streets, in communities and in prisons, but can't do it without your help.

To register and to receive more information please call 0171 278 5769.

PAUL ROSS, for the Children's Society.
