My story

 

Dear Friends

Most people manage to go without alcohol for January-but I decided to take it a step further! Infact 500 days, which means not a drop will pass my lips from 3rd January 2009 until May 18th 2010.

My wife Claire was diagnosed last summer with Follicular Lymphoma, and she was lucky enough to be selected for a clinical trial of Rituximab. I therefore decided to devote some of my time to raising funds for clinical research.

I want the money I raise to go specifically to Lymphoma research. Therefore I have decided to support Hope Against Cancer, and in particular the research being undertaken by Renata Walewska for CLL Therapy.

Please donate as much or as little as you can, everything will be greatly appreciated; say who you are or be anonymous

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Hope Against Cancer 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 me now!
