My story

 

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Last September, Laura and two of her friends did a skydive in memory of her brother and raised a magnificent £16,000 for 4 charities. My wife has just done a sponsored walk for The Orchid Cancer Appeal fighting against male cancers, the disease which took our son from us, and raised a fab £6000. To mark the day which would have been Ian's 26th birthday, I determined to conquer my fears and do a free fall jump to raise money for the Hospice which helped us care for Ian through his last few weeks last August. They need £4,500,000 a year to keep on with the great work they do. Please help me to support them - and beat the amount raised by the wife!

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: St Catherine’s Hospice (Crawley) 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!
