Raising money for

Crimestoppers

Charity Registration No. 1108687

Crimestoppers is the independent crime-fighting charity. We help to arrest 17 criminals every day and one murderer every 5 days. Our charity runs the anonymous telephone number, 0800 555 111, that people can call to pass on information about crimes. We also have an anonymous online ‘Giving Information’ form that people can fill out to pass on information. Some people fear the consequences of going to the police when they know about a crime. Crimestoppers is there for them. Because the telephone number is anonymous, callers are not asked for any personal information and calls cannot be traced. 0800 555 111 has been helping to find criminals and solve crimes for 21 years. We’ve received more than 1 million telephone calls with useful information about crimes. It’s a system that works for everyone – except criminals. With your support, we can continue fighting crime to make our society a safer place to live.

My story

In February 2007, I am taking part in the Westminster Challenge which is an arduous fundraising trek across the Arctic wilderness by husky dog sled with a cross-party team of Members of Parliament. The team will travel through Finland, Sweden and Norway.

This exciting expedition gives me a great opportunity to raise the profile of the local and national charities I have chosen to back.

The funds raised will support three national charities (Cancer Research UK, The Children’s Society and Crimestoppers) as well as my chosen local charity, Whirlow Hall Farm Trust.

Whirlow Hall Farm Trust is a charity based in my constituency whose aim is to reach out to those children most disadvantaged in our society.

Based on a real working farm, Whirlow is able to offer young children, often from the most disadvantaged areas of Sheffield and South Yorkshire, an extraordinary opportunity to experience country life and explore a vital part of their environment.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: the charities 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.

I am keen to raise the target figure of £5,000, and even more, to fund the charities' crucial work. So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.
