Jack Jarvis - Junior Great South Run

Smile4Rich Appeal is raising money for The Wessex Neurological Centre Trust

Participants: Jack Jarvis

Donations cannot currently be made to this page

Tesco Junior and Mini Great South Run · 27 October 2007 ·

The Wessex Neurological Centre serves a population of 3 million throughout central southern England & the Channel Islands. Having successfully raised £80,000 to provide a dedicated 'critical care' ambulance, and £145,000 to fund the creation of a Paediatric Video-Telemetry Suite (used to assess children with severe Epilepsy as to their suitability for life-changing corrective surgery), our latest appeal aims to raise a further £200,000 for our most ambitious project to date - the Fluorescence Enhanced Neurosurgery Appeal. Surgeons at the Centre perform vascular neurosurgery (to repair aneurysms, haemorrhages and the like), on hundreds of patients each year. By equipping one of the Centre's operating theatres with a new, state-of-the-art operating microscope fitted with the FL800 Fluorescence system, most of these patients will benefit. Fluorescence Enhanced Neurosurgery enables surgeons to clearly visualise blood-flow in adjacent brain tissue, reducing the possibility of either a recurrence of the bleed, or of a post-operative stroke.

Story

My name is Jack Jarvis I am 13 yrs old and I'm running the Junior Great South Run in aid of Smile4Rich. I have chosen this charity as my grandad has had 2 brain tumours removed and as a result he now has fits. He is treated in the Wessex Neurological Centre and I want to help raise as much money as I can.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Smile4Rich will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.
