Hi
Thanks for vising my JustGiving page - as you know, I've decided to move out of the Magic 828 Studio on Thursday 25 March and broadcast the show for TWENTY FOUR HOURS!
Why would you do that you might ask! Well, as you know, Magic 828's charity Cash for Kids was set up a few years ago to provide a helping hand for local disadvantaged kids. Cash for Kids has now launched an appeal to raise money for the new Leeds Children's Hospital - to help make the time spent by kids and their families in hospital, happier, better and brighter.
Imagine being a child in hospital, many for long periods of time, in unfamiliar surroundings, with sometimes painful treatment to endure; imagine being a parent with the worry and anxiety they must feel caring for a child in hospital. I really want to make a difference to the lives of those kids and so the idea of the 24 Hour Breakfast Show was born.
You can donate online here and sponsor me for the 24 Hour Breakfast (Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.)
So please dig deep and donate now.
Thanks and keep listening to the best of the 60s, 70s and more on Magic 828!
