Story

<p><span style="font-size: 9.5pt; color: black; font-family: Verdana;">Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: black; font-family: Arial;">Let me introduce myself &ndash; my name is Gulwant S Bains (George Bains)</span></p> <p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: black; font-family: Arial;">I have decided to do a charity walk of 10 miles for Breast Cancer Care and The LOROS Hospice and hope to raise a substantial sum. The walk will be on Saturday May 14th 2011 at Bradgate Park, Leicester.&nbsp; I am now over 80 years old but am mentally positive and physically strong. I always think about my fitness levels and know I can achieve my target as far as my health allows.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: black; font-family: Arial;">The reason for the charity walk: Unfortunately my wife was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1999. She received fantastic care from the LOROS clinic and is still being treated by the hospital at their lymphoedema clinic. I would also like to raise money for Breast Cancer Care who support others like my wife who are affected by the disease by offering information and support.</span></p> <p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: black; font-family: Arial;">It was all a blessing in disguise the way we found out about the breast cancer. I do not want future generations to suffer with the same dilemma. More and more money has to be spent for check ups during the early stages.</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: black; font-family: Arial;">Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It&rsquo;s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Breast Cancer Care gets your money faster and, if you&rsquo;re a taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure Gift Aid is added to your donation.</span></p> <p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: black; font-family: Arial;">Blessed are those who bless others.&nbsp; So please sponsor me now!</span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 9.5pt; color: black; font-family: Verdana;">So please sponsor me now!</span></p>
