Story
Macmillan Cancer Support plays an essential part in helping my patients, and I feel that anything I can do to support their cause would be scant return for what they have done to help my patients and me over the years.
With the help of Macmillan Cancer Support I intend to walk the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu (in Peru) in May 2011. This is something that I have wanted to do for many years and this seems a great way to achieve my ambition.
To those of you who have questioned my sanity on taking on this walk, or to the others who have suggested that it represents a major "midlife crisis" I can only hope that I shall allay your worries and achieve both my aims: 1) to enjoy (and survive) the whole experience and 2) to raise an inordinate amount of money for Macmillan Cancer support.
(As well as raising money for the charity imagine what the training and walk will do for my middle-aged waistline!!!)
So I ask you to dig deep and donate what you feel you can spare as I would really like to achieve my target of £10,000. Remember no amount is too small ( nor too big ha-ha! ) 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.If you would like to follow my weekly blog of my preparations, go to:
