Addenbrookes Sailing Challenge · 22 July 2011

We want to ensure that every patient at Addenbrooke's and the Rosie hospitals experiences the highest quality of care available. We raise funds for cutting edge technology, additional specialist staff and extra comforts for patients, over and above what is possible with NHS funding alone.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Why Addenbrooks Hospital? My wifes sister and one of my best friends were both treated sussessfully for cancer last year at Addenbrooks. They need to raise over  £1million to replace a robotic operation system and I plan to help them by offering my services free of charge as a Skipper on the Sailing Challenge Plus walk across England 200 miles in May.Our aim is to sail from Southampton across the English Channel to Cherbourg on the northern coast of France. Weather permitting. it should take approximately 24 hours to sail there and back. Cast off will be on 6th August, returning on Sunday 7th.

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. and forward to friends who may wish to help me reach my target.
