Story

<p>Well, the challenge was done, and I beat my target. Even better though, over at Digital Louis' Justgiving page they beat their target, so any overspill will be donated to Daniel Morgan - see below.</p> <p><span style="color: #ff6600;"><strong>"We've done it!!!!!!!</strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;</span><strong>We have enough to buy a powerchair AND a docking system to clamp the snapdragon into our car. &nbsp;Thank you all so much!</strong></p> <p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Any money donated here from 20/12/2010 will go towards four year old Daniel Morgan who, like Louis, needs a Snapdragon to get around. &nbsp;He will be starting school soon and a Snapdragon will mean he can go to a mainstream primary and cause as much mischief as the other kids!!"</strong></span></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Hello!</p> <p>On December the 13th I'll be braving the niches and furthest reaches of the London Underground network, battling *things* that lurk between the gap and avoiding the mutant tube mice, all in an effort to raise money for Digital Louis' new powerchair.</p> <p>The challenge is to travel the entire network in one day, but with the added difficulty of bagging every interchange, taking a photograph of the outside of the station (to document the change, and increasing my likelihood of being arrested under the Terrorism Act - danger bonus!).</p> <p>I'm asking you good people to sponsor me a set amount for each interchange station bagged. There are a possible 62 stations - that's a lot of running up and down escalators. A suggested donation is 15p per interchange, making a total donation of &pound;9.30 IF and only if I get them all!</p> <p>Oooh it's like Pokemon for geeks.</p> <p>Hang on, Pokemon is for geeks. OK, it's like Pokemon with a Travelcard.</p> <p>Visit http://misplacedmarbles.blogspot.com/2010/12/help-louis-get-some-wheels.html for more information, and once I've done it, proof of the journey.</p> <p><span style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: #1c1c1c; line-height: 14px;">Louis has been accepted as a beneficiary of The Turbo Trust. &nbsp;The donations given on this page can go towards Louis' Snapdragon chair (and it'll be assumed that you would prefer them to).&nbsp; However, if we raise too much money or if we get a magical cure for Louis and he no longer needs a powerchair then the Turbo Trust will ensure that any excess money raised will go towards helping other kids like Louis who also need a &nbsp;Snapdragon powerchair. &nbsp; <p style="margin: 0px 0px 16px; padding: 0px; border-width: 0px; outline-width: 0px; font-size: 14px; vertical-align: baseline; background-color: transparent; line-height: 19px;">&nbsp;</p> If you are a UK taxpayer the Turbo Trust can receive gift aid on your donation (28% - yaay!!) and in addition, some or all of the Gift Aid raised may also go towards Louis&rsquo; powerchair. &nbsp;If you only want your donation to go towards Louis, then you can still donate on this page but the donation will not be eligible for Gift Aid. &nbsp;If this is your choice please let us know. <p style="margin: 0px 0px 16px; padding: 0px; border-width: 0px; outline-width: 0px; font-size: 14px; vertical-align: baseline; background-color: transparent; line-height: 19px;">&nbsp;</p> Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to Turbo Trust and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation. <br /></span></p>
