Hi, and thanks for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.
If you are interested in what I'm doing to raise monies please read on.
Well, I really wanted a challenge and so I decided to have a go at fulfilling a long standing ambition and complete my 1st marathon in Edinburgh on 25th May. 
I have chosen to do this to support by wife Alex, who was diagnosed with melanoma cancer in August 2007 and has since lived her life whilst undergoing radiotherapy and chemotherapy treatments. I'm so proud of her for staying positive and strong.
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Newcastle Upon Tyne Hospitals Nhs Charity will receive your money faster and, if you are a taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.
Newcastle Upon Tyne Hospitals Nhs Charity work alongside the Sir Bobby Robson Foundation, all monies raised will go towards supporting the new Early Cancer Trials Unit at the Northern Centre for Cancer Care, currently being built at the Freeman Hospital.
