Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm abseiling 450 feet down Guys Hospital Tower in aid of ECHO (Evelina Childrens Heart Organisation) on 2nd May 2011 with my family to raise money for this excellent charity which supports children and their families with congenital heart problems.

My neice, Sophie, was superbly treated at Guys Hospital as a baby and its time for our family to do something to acknowledge the great work they do day in and day out. Soph has done her bit raising money via a cake stall as she's not old enough to join us abseiling yet.  Unfortunately, I am old enough and mad enough to say yes and hope you'll support me. 

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.
