Running a marathon for OSME

On the 7th of September OSME supporter, Ed Stubbings will be running a marathon in the ancient city of Petra in Jordan. Funds raised for OSME will be specifically for our Youth Development Fund to support initiatives across the OSME region (you can also choose to support the UK-based Marine Conservation Society).

Ed Stubbings – “A few years ago I decided that I wanted to run a desert and an ice marathon before I was 50 and this is the desert leg of that ambition. I chose Jordan as I had started doing some bird survey work in the region last year (Red Sea coast of Saudi Arabia, just south of Jordan) and I chose OSME because a friend (Richard Porter) recommended their Youth Development Fund as a worthy cause in the region. I really hope that I can do my best and raise lots of money to give young people across the OSME Region an opportunity to experience and be inspired by nature.”
