My story

 

'Flying Miles for MENCAP'

On Friday August 1st 2008 a fellow pilot and I will be flying across the UK to raise money for Mencap.

Our challenge is to start out just before dawn from our home aerodrome at Shobdon, Herefordshire in a small single engine light aircraft and fly to 6 principal airports in the English regions, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland, covering 1200 miles in one day. Our routing will be:

Manchester

Edinburgh

Newcastle

Cardiff

Aldergrove(Belfast)

Plymouth

Royal MENCAP are supporting the event, and it is hoped that the Regional groups will become involved and that supporters, service users, families and carers can join us afterwards to celebrate.

So,  please dig deep and sponsor me online.

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

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support

Yours,  Marcus Woof
