<div class="frp-message-body" style="height: auto;"> <p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my <strong><em>JustGiving</em></strong> page. All I'm asking is for a couple of quid - the price of a pint or half-a-packet of ciggies - to make life a little happier for children less fortunate than ourselves.</p> <p>The challenge is to walk <span style="color: #008000;"><strong>The Ivanhoe Way </strong></span><em>(a 35 mile circular walk around the north western area of Leicestershire) </em><strong>AGAIN</strong>&nbsp;in under 15-hrs , on June 16th 2012. I limped home in fourteen-and-a-half&nbsp;hrs last year so hope to improve upon that thsi year .&nbsp;&nbsp;<span style="color: #008000;"><strong>The Ivanhoe Way&nbsp;</strong></span> was&nbsp;developed by the Leicestershire County Council, in conjunction with the Leicestershire Association of Parish and Local Councils. (For further information see&nbsp;<a href="http://www.leics.gov.uk/ivanhoeway">http://www.leics.gov.uk/ivanhoeway</a>&nbsp;)&nbsp;</p> <p><strong><em><span style="color: #0000ff;">Wishes 4 Kids</span></em></strong> is a Midlands based charity and has been created to grant a wish for children and youngsters in Leicestershire who are life limited, terminally ill, have experienced life-changing physical or emotional traumas, have suffered major abuse or are diagnosed as HIV Positive.&nbsp;Their goal is to create a magical experience packed with excitement and anticipation. The time when a child has a wish granted is a moment that will be treasured by them for the rest of their life. It is also a time which parents will remember - that time when their child forgot the suffering.</p> <p>(For further information see <a href="http://www.wishes4kids.co.uk/">www.wishes4kids.co.uk</a>)</p> <p>Donating through <strong><em>JustGiving</em></strong> is simple, fast and totally secure.
