My story

Please sponsor me to complete 108 Sun Salutations at the first ever Brixton Yogathon: 26th February 2012. All in aid of the Prison Phoenix Trust, supporting yoga and meditation in prisons.

I was inspired to do this when I did a day's training with the Prison Phoenix Trust. Also on the training was a former drug smuggler who was given a yoga book while serving a 10-year stretch in jail in Argentina. It completely changed his life and he's now teaching yoga in west London. You can read about him on my blog.

So thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe – 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 thanks for whatever you can give - don't mind how small!
