My story

Thank you so much for visiting my sponsorship page.  My walk is now well underway, the blisters are kicking in but it is all worth it when I see how much money people are raising.

When I started my first walk back in 1985, children diagnosed with leukaemia had just a 20% chance of survival. Today it is an 80% chance. I won’t stop walking until there is a cure but I need your help.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Leukaemia Research 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!

Many thanks for your support.

Sir Ian Botham
