Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I have will be running in memory of my Grandad - Alan Rowbotham. Alan was diagnoised with Mesothelioma in Dec 2008 and unfortunately after a strong battle passed away surrounded by his much loved close family in Dec 2009. Towards the end of last year the Macmillan trust provided support to both my Grandad and Nanna. It was because of this support my grand parents found it just that little bit easier to cope.

As a thank you for their support I wish to raise as much money as possible to assist their continuing efforts.
