*** UPDATE ***
I completed the half marathon in 2 hours, 13 minutes. See my webpage at http://www.kingqueen.org.uk . Please continue to sponsor me for such a good cause!
**************
I am asking for sponsorship for completion of the Great North Run (Half Marathon) in September 2005.
The money will go to support the Calvert Trust Kielder, whose website can be found at http://www.calvert-trust.org.uk/kielder/ . They are amazing and have really changed my life: they have such a "can do" attitude for disabled people.
I am a full-time wheelchair user with 24 hour care needs and I go for short breaks there, where I go climbing, abseilling, on the zipwire, sailing, motorboating, canoeing - the list is endless and amazing.
To see the sort of things I can do with their help see my photos at http://www.kingqueen.org.uk/photos/kielder.html.
I find wheelchair racing very difficult but very rewarding and am determined to raise this money. Any money raised will go to enabling more disabled people to take part in the fantastic opportunity which is the Calvert Trust, Kielder.
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Calvert Trust 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.
