Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

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.  Hi.  My first aim is to complete The Great Manchester run 2010, to raise as much as possible for the 'Bone cancer research trust'.  This is a charity set up to promote awareness, and to enable research, into primary bone cancer.  Especially Osteosarcoma and Ewing's sarcoma.

This is extremely close to my heart, as our son was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in December 2006, when he was 9 years old.  Now at nearly 13 he is fit and well, and trying to resume as normal a life as possible.  Without advances in treatment and research the outcome could have been much different.  Please help me to help the 'trust', and help us to improve the outcome for all the, mostly young, people diagnosed with this horrible disease every year in Great Britain and Ireland.

In anticipation of your support.  Thank you very much.
