My story

Hi Folks,

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As some of you may know, I was diagnosed with "High Cholesterol" in May 2010, and as a consequence, I was provided with free weekly Weight Watchers session's by my GP, (Weight Watchers on prescription!!). By October 2010, I had reduced my Cholesterol back down to normal levels and also reduced my weight by 50 (Fifty) lbs.

I have now maintained my "Target Weight/Gold Member" for over a year through diet, exercise (and a reduction in alcohol !!) and thought that a challenge requiring regular exercise would give me an incentive/goal to carry on for a bit longer.

The challenge that I have signed up for is a "London to Paris" cycle ride (22-25 June 2012). 320km (200 miles) over 3 days, which I am financing myself (£595.00), and with your help, I would like to raise £750.00 for my chosen local charity, St Paul's Hostel in Worcester.

Please visit the St Paul's Hostel site   http://www.stpaulshostel.co.uk/

Feel free to make any donation, small or large as every penny received will help me to get to my target sooner, encourage others to donate to the fund, and put a bit more pressure on me to start training for the event !!!!

Thanks for looking,

Andy Southall  xxx
