My story

Guys - what can I say.  Thought I would need to si' down after the walk, but the superb response I have had to my fundraising efforts, well, that really calls for a lie down in a darkened room!  I am in complete shock at the magnificence of your support and from me, from the Playground and from all their visitors with special needs, who, last year, made 13,652 visits, THANK YOU SO, SO MUCH!

Am keeping my page active for a while longer to allow me, and all my supporters, a chance to revel in their tremendous generosity!


Well, hello - and very many thanks for visiting my JustGiving page.  Am feeling rather proud of myself, setting up this page.  Not normally being the 'technical' sort, it has been giving me a few sleepless nights, I can tell you, but when the challenge is thrown down, you can be sure that Sid Downe is the man to pick it up - as long as I can reach it without getting out of my armchair, of course!  Seriously though, I do hope you will help me reach my target - it is a bit ambitious, but, heh, a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do, and the Playground REALLY does need my help.  If you haven't already had a look to see what is on offer, do, please, have a proper look at their website, www.tvap.co.uk

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe and JustGiving promise that they never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the Playground 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.

If you can help me reach the target, it would be fantastic, and I look forward to hearing from you and seeing if, between us, we can give the Sponsored Walk a real boost!
