Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my Just Giving page.

On 21st May I'll set off in a yacht with three others to sail round the coast of Britain - Scotland, England and Wales. We are leaving from Inverkip marina on the Clyde, sailing clockwise and hoping to do the journey in 5 - 6 weeks. We hope to make several stops on our 2000 mile journey, especially the Orkney and Scilly Isles. I have never undertaken a voyage of this length and complication and am wondering how my stomach and companions will cope.

It's been suggested that I might do this for charity so I am hoping to raise some money for Myeloma UK in memory of my wife Rosie. Multiple Myeloma is a kind of bone cancer for which there is as yet no cure and about which much research needs to be done.

If you are able and willing to donate it will be most appreciated. Myeloma UK has its headquarters in Edinburgh and will make good use of any funds received.

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.
