Story

<p><span style="color: #000080;">A huge thank you to Matt, Katy and Jonny Bass for their very generous donation of &pound;75.00. Cheers guys x. </span></p> <p><span style="color: #000080;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p><span style="color: #000080;">Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #000080;">Back in March 2009 my brother in laws best friend, Stuart Langley, was profoundly injured in a cycling accident. He survived and against all the odds has continued to make a positive, if incredibly slow, recovery. Now my brother in law, Spencer Hall, has organised a climb to help raise money for the hospital Stuart now resides in. </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #000080;">This year we are hoping to raise enough money to purchase a standing frame for the phisiotherapy unit at Queen Alexandra; that we are told Stuart will directly benefit from. &nbsp; </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #000080;">The plan is to climb Mount Toubkal in the Atlas Mountains,Morroco. At 4,167 metres (13,671 ft) high, the Mountain of Jebel Toubkal is the highest peak in The Atlas Mountains and in turn North Africa. Our intention is to scale it in October 2011. With all donations made going directly to the hospital, and yes us funding our own trip....you won't be paying for us to have a jolly!</span></p> <p><span style="color: #000080;"> <p>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. 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. Many thanks to you all from Stuart and his family.</p> </span></p>
