My story

Updated on Feb 6th 2012 at 9:13 AM from the JustGiving API

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Some of you will remember my wife, Becci, suffering a major stroke in November 2009, the day after her 39th birthday. Amazingly, her recovery was fast and almost 100%. This was thanks in no small measure to the stroke ward at Basingstoke Hospital.

Thanks to ongoing research, she was given a 'thrombolysis' injection that dispersed the errant blood clot in her brain within a few hours of the stroke.

I decided to (attempt to !) trek to Everest as it is my 40th later this year, and I hope to raise money for The Stroke Association at the same time. I will be ably accompanied by Steve Carter.

Those of you that know me well, can't fail to be impressed that I have worked out how use a computer ! I'll update this with more info when I work out how to !

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
