Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Like a duck to water, I will be swimming a total of 10 hours (2 hours each day for 5 consecutive days) at the Lagoon Leisure Centre in Paisley to raise money for a charity close to my heart. My husband, James, has recently been diagnosed with Acute Myleoid Leukemia and is currently undergoing intense chemotherapy treatment in the Beatson. I want to give them something back, for the wonderful care they offer, so please donate to this worthwhile cause. A little goes a very long way to give all patients a tranquil setting to escape to.

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.

So please dig deep and donate now.
