Hi, I started fundraising a number of years ago in memory of my late dad and my brother andrew who died from a genetic condition haemachromatosis that i also will develop and my mum Judy who died of a heart attack cause by cancer in 2007.
**Gus running in 2008 New York Marathon** This my fundraising page for Bombay Duck 2008.
**The Cycle ride has been postponed until next year, when the support veichle broke down on the way down on the way to John O Groats. Since last year the rowing and cycling on the ferry mainly by Gus but including others has raised over £19,000 this also includes other charity runs. Alaisdair's sail around Britain so far has raised over £350 and Gus is continuing into next year so please dig deep and support these fantastic charities** Events 2008:
