My story

 
Hi

OK - I did it. I don't know quite how, but I managed it. It was a bit like cycling in a sauna - 35C (90F) and high humidity, but the experience was well worth it. All the months of training paid off - although it was definitely exhausting, cycling over 500km in 6 days. I've definitely earned your donations - in fact if I'd known how tough it was going to be, I'd have tried to get you to double what you've kindly given already.

And I guess it's not too late. Even though the ride is over, I still need to collect the full sum promised. Every penny donated will go to Norwood.

Norwood is a great charity helping both children and adults with severe learning disabilities, and their families live active and fulfilling lives. Norwood also supports people with social difficulties - including drug dependency, family break-up, and so on, cope. It works with children in problem situations - orphans, bullying, abuse, etc. grow to become happy and productive adults. Norwood's patron is Her Majesty The Queen. It is also my local charity - they are based 10 minutes walk away from me.

I still need to raise money to reach my target. The total promised is £2750. That's 75 people donating £40 - less than the price of a meal for two in a reasonable restaurant. Your money will help others who can only dream of such luxuries! However any amount is appreciated - whether it is £5 or £10 or £500 or more. So think about Norwood, and what it offers those in need, and be charitable.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Norwood will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.


So please sponsor me now! You can see the proof that I did it, and the photos I took at http://www.marketing-intelligence.co.uk/norwood/

Many thanks for your support.

Arthur
