My story

 
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. I'm raising money for the CTRT appeal because I trust the doctors at Mount Vernon. I write this blog, Take Off Your Running Shoes, and according to my "stats" three thousand people visit the blog each week. The CTRT appeal needs a kickstart, say £500,000 to really get going with its next phase. Mostly, the fundraisers tell me, you have to rely on a pop star for that one big donation. But I figure if everybody who reads my blog donates one pound a week for one year, then we are the popstars who set this thing going. Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: CTRT Appeal 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. Many thanks for your support. www.dinablog.com
