Barcelona Triathlon · 12 August 2008

We provide specialist end-of-life care, and a wide range of support services, to over 1,200 people who are living with a life-limiting illness in the Wigan Borough. Many patients are cared for in their own homes, although we also care for people living in care homes and in our In-Patient Unit.

Story

Ta for visiting my fundraising page.

It's the first time I've ever done anything like this (run around in a pair of trunks sober) and will probably be the last so please give generously.

I'm doing the Barcelona Triathlon on Sunday October 5th which involves a 750m swim, a 20km cycle and ends with a 5km run. I thought I should try and raise some money whilst I did it and then at least if I kiff it on the way round its not all been in vain. - http://barcelonatriathlon.com

The folk in the fundraising department at Wigan and Leigh Hospice tell me they need £2.4million a year just to keep going and of that, each year they need to raise £1.5 million from fundraising. It's a place I know does fantastic work as my mam works there.

If you want to find out more about them here's a link  - http://www.wiganandleighhospice.org.uk

According to them, - donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure.  It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: (though my paper form seems pretty good) Wigan and Leigh Hospice gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So if you could spare anything at all it would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Martin
