Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
Sue & I will be joining the National Young Fundraiser of the Year, Jonjo Heurman who has already raised over £92,000.00 for The Bobby Moore Fund. We will be joining Jonjo on part of his Route 66 walk, he is walking from Upton Park to Wembley and back again, 66 miles in 6 days.
read some of Jonjo's story
"My name is Jonjo and I am 10 years old. My nanny and Bobby Moore both died from bowel cancer. I wanted to do something to help save people so I do lots for The Bobby Moore Fund for Cancer Research UK, so far I have raised almost £91,000 and I have generated over £1million in awareness for the charity.
Next year is Bobby's 20th anniversary and I am doing something very special. I am organising a tag team for each of the 92 professional football clubs. Each team will collect their captains armband, attach it to a sash with a GPS tracking device, and take the sash to the next club in the chain. There are 10 connecting chains and this will happen right across England between 13th and the 19th Feb 2013 until the sashes reach me at the gates of Upton Park. When I am tagged I will wear all of the sashes and I will walk to Wembley Stadium to collect the England captains armband for Bobby and I will bring it back to Upton Park. My part of the walk will be 66 miles (World Cup Year) in 6 days (Bobby's shirt number).
This is my video message http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wk5FB2I3bB0, it tells you a bit more about my event. There are lots of people joining in and helping me raise money and awareness and I hope you can too.
You can read lots about me on the internet if you Google Jonjo Heuerman or on my websitewww.fornannyandbobby.com.
Thank you for reading my message and I hope you can donate and help me reach my target. From Jonjo :O) "
