Story

There's lots of reasons why I'm going to jump out of a plane strapped to a man I barely know, and why I'm going to do this for CLIC Sargent.

I hate that cancer can rip families apart. I think CLIC Sargent has the right emphasis on helping families be together and creating opportunities for children and young people to keep on doing kid's stuff in the midst of a particularly un-child friendly experience.

Thinking about Cancer makes me feel scared and miserable. I don't appreciate that so I'm going to jump out of a plane and go so fast that the scaredness and miserableness is pushed right out of my boots and turned into a pink and fluffy cloud.

And now a word from legal: "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."

And remember, "No-one ever became by poor by giving".

Thanks in advance

Paul
