My story

Thanks for visiting my justgiving page.

I'll be honest, I can't stand people who pester me for money, but now I'm one of them, I urge you to read on... 

'He's just doing it to get promoted'...'He only wants two weeks out of the office without having to take leave'...'He was going to do it anyway' I hear people say.  There may be truth in all of this, but the fact is, my bottom is going to be very, very sore after two weeks in the saddle, and that is worth a few of your hard earned pounds!

The RAF Benevolent Fund provides a spectrum of care, supporting everyone from children growing up on RAF stations, to those serving today to keep our skies safe, to the veterans who fought for our freedom.

It could be supplying an electric wheelchair for a Polish pilot who fought in the Second World War, supporting the widow and children of an RAF sergeant killed in action, or providing practical help to a young airman injured in Afghanistan.

One day I'm going to have to leave the RAF, so if you don't want me sleeping on your floors after I leave, then please give geneously!

Oh yeah, as added incentive, the greatest benefactor will get my unwashed cyling shorts as a prize.  You lucky devils.
