The Magic Wand Foundation Harold Gittelmon, md of Harding Brothers Retail, is going to run in the New York Marathon. “I have never done a marathon before but want to do this for Helen Bull, who works for our customer, Carnival UK. Helen is the most inspiring person I have met. She was diagnosed with cancer in December 2007. In January 2009 she was given six to nine months to live – that was 19 months ago, since when she has kept extremely active and run various marathons. When the cancer spread to her spine, Helen looked for a project to keep her busy and came up with the idea of the Magic Wand Foundation charity - which grants wishes for adult cancer sufferers. I hope to raise £10,000 for the Foundation and am appealing to all those involved in the travel industry. My fundraising page is www.justgiving.com/Harold- Gittelmon and see: www.willowfoundation.org.uk
