Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>On the 12th May my wife and I will be walking 18 miles (29 Km) across the black mountains (last year we completed in just over&nbsp;6 1/2&nbsp;hours) to raise money for the Longtown Mountain Rescue Team, the Longtown mountain resue team members give up their time voluntarily and receive no payment or expenses, however having the equipment, vehicles and support facilities to operate and potentially save lives is an expensive business. Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer.</p> <p>So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p>
