My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. 

this is the second year that eden and i have taken part in the boxing day dip at seaburn. ..last year we raised money for MACMILLAN.. this year its the FINLAY COOPER FUND....(the info below is by Colin Cooper.........)

The Finlay Cooper Fund was formed in August 2006, by myself and my wife Julie.

We lost our son Finlay in January 2002, in a tragic choking accident and we wanted to do something positive in his name to try and help children's Charities.

 

So when I retired from playing football in 2006, we started to raise mioney in earnest and we have managed to raise over £50, 000 with the help of a lot of generous people. Donations have been given to three Children's Hospices, a children's diabetes trust and also a childrens Cancer Ward.

 

With the help of people like yourselves, we hope to help Children's Charities for many years to come, in Finlay's name!

 

Many Thanks
