Dear rich friends, ex-friends, ex-colleagues, I'm aiming to row 50K non-stop for the Stroke Association, certainly not in a record time but with no breaks. My father suffered a stroke 10 years ago so this charity is important to me. Any contributions are very welcome. Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It's also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Stroke Association 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 please sponsor me now!
