Hello All,

I have been roped into doing the Commando Challenge this year in aid of Devon Air Ambulance Trust - DAAT (www.daat.org).

DAAT provide a much needed service to the people of Devon and receive no funding from the government. It takes £4m per year to keep the helicopters flying and this is 100% funded be charitable donations.

To see details of what I am up against see www.commandochallenge.co.uk, its the water tunnel I am NOT looking forward to, but with a hunky marine to shove me in and another to pull me out I am sure I will be ok!

I want to raise as much money as possible for DAAT so have not put any target, so please be generous with your sponsorship and I will put up some pictures after the event to give you a good laugh at my expense!

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.
