My story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

The CEO here at Quins has challenged staff to join him on a walk through some of the less salubrious areas of London to raise money for Friends United Network.

I could at this point say that I am partaking on a purely charitable and altruistic basis and that would be partly true. However, its probably a good thing to be seen to be supporting the gaffer what with my commission due soon etc etc.

I'm not sure what's worse - walking 20+ miles or walking 20+ miles with Mark!
