<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.</p> <p><strong>I've teamed up to canoe 100 miles of the Thames with my good friends Maddie and Vicky (both known to regulars of the Plough, Ifield), to raise money for the Olive Tree Cancer Support Trust in Crawley.</strong></p> <p>It's been a lifelong ambition of mine to do this, and thanks to the generosity of several local organisations, including Crawley Youth Centre who have donated the canoes, we will be able to complete the challenge over four days, 1-4 June - in honour of the Queen's Jubilee!</p> <p>It's not going to be easy, with a gruelling 25 miles on the water each day, so knowing that we're raising lots of money for this great cause will really help us on our way!&nbsp;</p> <p>The Olive Tree is an independent cancer support centre based at Crawley Hospital. It provides a drop-in centre, complementary therapies, counselling, information and support for cancer patients and their carers and families.
