Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I will be abseiling down all or the highest part of the Shard (depending on how successful my fundraising is!). The Shard is London's new iconic skyscraper and I am raising money for Outward Bound. As only a small number of people will be able to abseil it is vital that I am able to raise as much as possible. I have therefore set a good target and hope to get corporate and personal donations. Outward Bound is one of the leading charities in the UK dealing with disadvantaged young people - OB is different in that it works to give young people the self-confidence and life skills to make the best of themselves and fully develop their capabilities. That's why I am so passionate about supporting it. 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
