Raising money for

When You Wish Upon A Star

Charity Registration No. 1060963

When You Wish Upon a Star are a small charity whose primary aim is to grant the Wishes of children between the ages of 2 - 16 years old suffering from life threatening illnesses.

All children have Wishes but for these children and their families that Wish is so much more precious and for the duration of their Wish, these children are able to forget about hospital routines, doctors, gruelling treatments and have the chance to smile, laugh and enjoy life like any other child.

Wishes are varied and far reaching. For some it is a trip to Disneyland in Florida or Paris to meet their favourite characters and for others it is the chance to get up close to a favourite pop star of sporting hero. Some children just want books or toys, whilst others want a computer to catch up on school work or keep in touch with their friends. Whatever the Wish, wherever possible, When You Wish Upon a Star will aim to make that Wish come true.

My story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.

This is the ultimate challenge or me to handcycle 924 miles in 17 days.

From the age of 11 I suffered from severe leg ulcers. In 1997 I had my left leg amputated and in 1998 I had my right leg amputated, due to MRSA & leg ulcers, since then I ave take on many challenges including The London Marathon, The Great North Run, hand-cycled 500km over Vietnam & Cambodia. Last year saw me take on my first Triathlon and I have completed over 20 10k and half marathons over the last 3 years.

Good health is something many people take for granted. At any age, long term and life threatening ill health is hard to come to terms with. In the case of a child and their family, there can simply be nothing more devastating. As a parent, I can’t imagine the pain, anguish and suffering that must take place but I can see the need to bring some smiles and magic into their lives.

I am asking you to help me make some special dreams to come true. Every penny does count and will make a difference. Quite simply, the more sponsorship I receive the more smiles we can help bring about. Please note – I am paying my own costs for this so every penny will go where it should – to the children.

Many thanks for your support.
