I have to admit that the fun of competing in the Round the Island Race is no hardship.

However I am using this opportunity to draw your attention to the continuing need for urgent brain tumour research to help find a cure for this devastating disease.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Charlie's Challenge 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.

So please sponsor us now!

Thank you very very much.
