This year, all of the proceeds I raise will go to TIME. Details of the charity can be found at http://www.transplantsinmind.org.uk/ It is a relatively small charity so any donation will be most appreciated.
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Time (Transplants In Mind) 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.
