Thank you for visiting my page!

On 13 August 2007, I am flying to Cluj, Romania, with some of my future colleagues at Addleshaw Goddard. We are participating in a house-building project managed by Habitat for Humanity, a charity whose aim it is to help eliminate poverty and homelessness throughout the world. 

Yes, house-building. Literally. Mixing concrete, laying blocks, making window frames, digging foundations, plastering etc.  I know hard manual labour is probably not something with which most of you associate me, but I fully intend to  rise to the challenge! It's going to be hard in the 40 degree heat, but I will try not to pass out.

My travel and accommodation costs for the project are being paid for by my firm but I need to raise funds to contribute towards a donation to the charity. I would therefore be extremely grateful for any donation you feel you are able to make, however small, which will go straight to investment in future house-building initiatives.

You can find out more about the charity and specifically the work carried out in Romania at www.habitatforhumanity.org.uk. or by asking me!

Many thanks for your support.
