Hi, thanks for considering sponsoring me.
I've included some information regarding the charity that I am hoping to raise money for. I deliberately wanted to choose a charity that was not as mainstream or in the public eye as some, and have read a couple of articles that have shocked me recently which I have enclosed links too if people are interested.
Of all forms of mental illness in the UK Anorexia has the highest fatality rate, and reports suggest that this illness is on the increase, with as many as one in twenty young women thought to suffer from an eating disorder. It is also thought that there are over a million people in the UK with an eating disorder.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: beat gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
Any donations gratefully received.
Thanks for all your support.
Brian
