My story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.

For many years now I have wanted to pluck up the courage to complete the London Marathon, and seeing so many people each year brave the 26 miles in aid of a really worth while charity has been one of the reasons for me taking the plunge. The other reason that has inspired me is the prostate cancer is for personal reasons close to my familly's hearts.......oh and I am 40 later this year and I have to do this before I reach 40.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Prostate Cancer Charity 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. Just ensure you complete you home address in full and the tax man will suffer to the tune of an additional 28% !

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support. And see you at the finish line.
