My story

25.03.2012- Less than 4 weeks before the skydive and I have reached the £1000.00 target, I would like to thank every single person who sponsored me. I'm currently in the process of organising holding a tarantula with a lady from Cumbria. Thank you again to all that have sponsored me, I really appricate it.

4.03.2012- Getting closer to the 21st April, I would like to thank all the people who have sponsored and dontated so far your amazing and I thank you for your support. Im really dedicated to reaching £1000 so if I achieve this by the 21st April I will face my biggest fear which is a fear of spiders and hold a tarantula, I cant promise I will hold it for very long or that I wont scream so loud that people in Europe and beyond may hear me but I will do it as I feel I should really push myself to the max to say not only thank you to the MRT but also to you guys for digging deep and helping me with your kind donations without you guys I wouldnt be achieving these amazing amounts..so THANK YOU xx

On 21st of April I will be sky diving in memory of my love. He wanted us to do it together . I wasn't keen as I'm scared to jump out of an aircraft so this is going to be a huge thing for me. So please support me by sponsoring me its for a great cause without the mountain rescue volunteers no one would even stand a chance of survival. They work so hard they even went out if gale force winds until 4am early on this month searching for a guy to go up the fells whilst windy would be so dangerous and each have families of there own waiting back home so please sponsor me however small every penny counts. Thank you xxx

Our love Grant Kinnie died on the 11th September 2011 on the River Eamont, he was one of four instructors with a group of school children. Grant loved his Job as an Outdoor Instructor and he died not only doing what he loved but an hero.

I would like to not only give something back to my love for the fantastic few months we shared and the love he showed but to the rescue services that helped in his rescue, they worked so hard to save his life.

I will over the next 12 months be participating in a number of fundraising activities to raise money for the charities In honour of my love.

Again thank you for your support .

On 6th April I held a Tarantula, it was the most frigtening experience for me at first but I soon managed to control my fear with the help of the owner. Dee taught me how to control my fear through postive thinking and by building a trust with Charlotte the tarantula.
