A HOLSWORTHY lady is preparing for a challenge of a life time. Tara Cousins has entered this year's London Marathon (April 22) and is raising funds for Children's Hospice South West. She is well on her way to raising the target figure of £1,500 in sponsorship but would welcome more support. Tara has been training hard and has successfully completed several runs in the last year, including the famous Ruby Run and the recent half marathon in Bideford. If anyone would to sponsor Tara and the cause, call into Holsworthy's Corner Café or contact her on 01409 253619. She has extended her thanks to all the businesses that have donated.
