<p><strong>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</strong></p> <p><strong>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.</strong></p> <p><strong>So please dig deep and donate now.</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in Oct 09 and fortunately at the moment I have the relapse and remitting type which means there will be times when I feel ok and just have mild symptoms and then there will times when &nbsp;my symptoms will worsen. it isn't life shortening but can be quite a debilitating disease.</strong></p> <p><strong>I have always wanted to climb Kilimanjaro and after receiving my diagnosis and accepting what it could mean long term for both myself and my family I've decided to attempt this goal and try and raise as much money for Multiple Sclerosis society at the same time to hopefully support any research into a possible cure.</strong></p> <p><strong>Any amount of donation will be gratefully received.</strong></p> <p><strong>In addition to Just Giving and the trek, my family, friends and I are organising various fund raising activities around the Blackpool area this year. The first activity is on Friday 4th Feb 2011 at The Breck Club, Poulton. 7.30pm. It's a quiz night with hotpot supper and raffle and costs &pound;6.50 per ticket. All are welcome.&nbsp;</strong></p> <p><span style="font-size: 12.5px;"><strong><span style="font-size: 12.5px; color: #1c1c1c; line-height: 14px;"> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 10pt; margin-left: 0cm; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; line-height: 20px; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; display: inline !important; padding: 0px; border: 0px initial initial;"><span style="outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; font-size: 10.5pt; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; line-height: 20px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: #1c1c1c; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; padding: 0px; margin: 0px; border: 0px initial initial;">I will update this page during the year with details of other fundraising activities.</span></p> </span></strong></span></p> <p><strong><span style="font-size: 12.5px; color: #1c1c1c; line-height: 14px;"> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 0cm; margin-right: 0cm; margin-bottom: 12pt; margin-left: 0cm; outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: white; line-height: 20px; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; padding: 0px; border: 0px initial initial;"><span style="outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; font-size: 15px; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; color: #ff0000; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; padding: 0px; margin: 0px; border: 0px initial initial;"><span style="outline-width: 0px; outline-style: initial; outline-color: initial; font-size: 10.5pt; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: transparent; line-height: 20px; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; padding: 0px; margin: 0px; border: 0px initial initial;">Sponsors are always needed too.
