£128 is the NEXT DONATION we're looking for - please help us
Hello. Thanks for stopping by. My name is James Harrod and I've decided to try and raise a MILLION pounds for charity through the kindness of strangers.
I'm not sure how I'll get on, or whether I'll achieve my target, but I'm prepared to try.
My chosen charity is the fantastic Havens Hospices - based in Westcliff, near Southend in Essex, England. Locals will know all about the work they do - others please click here. You too will be inspired.
So what's the plan and can I really pull this off?
I'm starting with a pound. A single coin.
I'm then asking anyone I see, talk to, tweet to double that amount.
Instead of a pound, I'll soon have 2, then 4, then 8, then 16 .. and so on.
Everyone who donates will be given pride of place on this website and a little note about why they gave to this very special cause.

Sometimes we'll have to fight for the next stage and entice business or well known philanthropists - other times we'll be fortunate enough to be on the receiving end of an act of kindness from a complete stranger.
Whatever your background, whatever you can afford - we'd appreciate it.
So here we go...
Raised so far: £134.00
