My story

Updated on Jul 21st 2012 at 8:31 AM from the JustGiving API

Thanks so much for all of the donations so far. x

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Family and Friends who know me will know that I don't do jogging or exercise regularly at all. (apart from a strole around a golf course now and again) So on New Years Eve, like millions of others, I made a resolution to do more exercise. Then one of our friends suggested doing something for charity.
So, I've decided to do the Coast to Coast and GNR in memory of a very special little boy.
Last November, our good friends little boy Luca passed away aged just six years old.
Luca Jones was just four when he was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukaemia. Luca battled leukaemia so courageously for over 12 months. He sadly passed away on the 18th November 2011, just a couple of weeks after his sixth Birthday.
Luca will be remembered forever by myself, my family and all who knew him, and he is the reason that I'm doing this. I will also be trying to raise awareness and funds for a Charity that is close to Brad and Dani's hearts, and one which they have worked tirelessly for in the past, raising thousands of pounds.
Anthony Nolan are an independent charity, who rely on financial support from individuals and organisations. The funds you donate and help raise go directly towards helping to save lives.
You can also help by joining the donor register at:
It’s so easy to do, and you could save somebody’s life.
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.
To start the fund raising, and assist with my training :-) we are organising a 2 Hour zumbathon. This will be taking place in early February. Details are to follow.
Thank You
Jeff xx
