My story

 

Hard though it is to believe, I'm carrying a little more weight than is strictly healthy.  As a result, I can't really run marathons, attach myself to a bungee cord or jump out of perfectly serviceable aircraft.  No, really.

However, one thing I can do is to shift some of this surplus that's been hounding me for years.  I'm sorry if this might sound less than adventurous, but given my  "So many pies, so little time" attitude to life up to now, this is a Very Big Thing Indeed to me.

My employer, Coventry Building Society, has kindly offered to match any funds I raise up to £250, so if you get in early you can double your money! 

I aim to lose at least two stone between July 1st and September 30th - that's 28 pounds of blubber.  You can sponsor me on a £ per lb basis, but that might get pricey if I beat my target.  Alternatively, you can donate a fixed sum here.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: RNIB 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.

I guess some of you might want to keep track of my progress - after all, I could just be taking your money and maintaining my 'stoutness'.  So you can keep up to date with things by clicking this link here.

Please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.

Phil
