Updated on Jan 4th 2012 at 10:47 AM from the JustGiving API

Just wanted to say a huge thank you!!!! In total with gift aid and the personal donation to St. Claire's we have raised £1,633.75 through the Boxing Day Dip in Memory of my amazing cousin Amanda Olley and my dad. If you add the money raised through the Coast 2 Coast its a total of £1,978 in 2011 for two worthy charities. So once again, Thank You so much.

I can't believe how generous some people have been, today Clare, Catherine, David, Jonathan and Sue have raised the total to £600 for cancer connections, with gift aid £750. I appreciate things are tight so anything counts .. I didnt think loads of you would pay and want to see me suffer!

I know everyone is asking for sponsorship especially around the south shields area ... as you may know (as I've gone on and on about it) I'm doing the boxing day dip. I've raised £475 for cancer connections .. hoping two or three people may find the time to sponsor me tonight and take it over the £500 Target. If you sponsor me I will match it for St Claires Hospice

Ann thank you so much

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In the last few years my family has lost too many people to cancer, recently we lost one of the most beautiful people I have ever know!

 

If you sponsor me I promise to match the sponsorship and donate the money to St Claire’s Hospice who I have just witnessed do a fantastic job, so your sponsorship will be doubled.

 

This Boxing Day I have agreed to do the Boxing Day Dip, so hopefully it won’t be too cold. The only attire will be swimming shorts, so it’s going to be a cold one. I’m doing it with a load of other people off the Little Haven Beach at South Shields so we will be 1) Stripping down to some swimming shorts, 2) Diving into the North Sea,  3) We will be going for a little swim 4) Start to shake 5) Suffer from the early onset of hypothermia 6) Probably then start to cry.

 

All donations will be appreciated..... so if you want to see me suffer please donate!
