My story

 

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. 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.

 

Some of you may know that I have had a practise fall as I jumped out of a small plane when I was still only 49 (on a trip to New Zealand) from 15,000 ft.  However I was not organised then and missed the opportunity to raise money for charity.  I am a board member of Penumbra - an organisation which is at the forefront of innovation and creativity with regards to services for people with mental health problems.  Money is tight right now, as you can imagine, so I thought I would do my little bit raising some extra cash and having an incredible experience at the same time.  This is all because I was starting to experience vertigo when climbing mountains (a favourite past-time of mine) and I thought if I had done something more extreme then it would disappear!  My logic may not be sound but it's a good excuse. 

 

So please contribute however much you can to Penumbra!
