Story

<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 10pt;">Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.&nbsp;</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 10pt;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 10pt;">On Saturday 30th April I will be abseiling down Dorchester Abbey with 11 other deranged people to open the Dorchester Festival and help raise money for charity.&nbsp;For someone who is decidedly acrophobic I am dreading this, and wonder why these things ever seem a good idea after a few drinks! If anyone wants to see me look truly terrified, it all happens sometime around lunchtime!</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 10pt;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 10pt;">The proceeds with be split between Dorchester Abbey and Footsteps; the Footsteps Foundation helps children and young adults with neuro-motor disorders to develop and maximise their physical abilities. It is an excellent charity, and provides funding for children to benefit from a programme of intensive physiotherapy at The Footsteps Centre based in Warborough.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 10pt;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 10pt;">You can find out more about the Festival and Footsteps at:-</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 10pt;">&nbsp;</span><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: blue; font-size: 10pt;"><a href="http://www.dorchesterfestival.com/"><span style="color: #0000ff;">www.dorchesterfestival.com</span></a></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: TrebuchetMS; color: #0000ff; font-size: x-small;"> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: TrebuchetMS; color: #0000ff; font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: blue; font-size: 10pt;"><a href="http://www.footstepsfoundation.com"></a></span></span><span style="font-family: TrebuchetMS; color: #0000ff; font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: TrebuchetMS; color: #0000ff; font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"><a href="http://www.footstepsfoundation.com">www.footstepsfoundation.com</a></span></span></span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 10pt;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 10pt;">I would like to raise at least &pound;250 - whatever is raised will be matched pound for pound by Leaseguard! So I would be thrilled if you could sponsor me, but if you are thinking about donating a very large sum I would be grateful if you could perhaps think of sponsoring one of the participants!</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 10pt;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 10pt;">Donating through JustGiving is simple totally secure. Once you donate, they&rsquo;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&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 10pt;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 10pt;">Thank you for your support.</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 10pt;">&nbsp;</span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: &quot;Arial&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; color: black; font-size: 10pt;">Peter</span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> </span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
