My story

 

I have volunteered to join the team entered by HSBC for the Loire Challenge, which will mean the 4 of us raising money for charity (target £1,200) by cycling about 45 miles per day each over 3 consecutive days in France (25th - 27th September 2009).

Our chosen local charity is Willen Hospice, which provides free care to people with cancer and other life threatening conditions. Its running costs are £3.4m p.a., of which only 25% is funded by the NHS so sponsorship and donations are crucial.

I will be retiring on 9th October 2009 so I see representing the bank in this event as the perfect way to bring down the curtain on my 40 years career.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

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.
