My story

Hello Friend,

Many thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

I am planning (together with a walking friend) to walk from St Bee's Head in Cumbria across England to Robin Hood's Bay in Yorkshire. This is the famous COAST TO COAST walk - a distance of 192 miles (307 kms) and we are planning to walk it in 14 days - starting on Saturday 16th May 2009.

I'm raising funds for Blythswood Care - see details on this page and I'd really love you to sponsor me!.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Blythswood Care gets your money faster and, in addition, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So I hope you'd like to and are able to sponsor me.

Very many thanks and with best wishes,

Derek
