Bliss is the leading UK charity for babies born premature or sick. We rely on donations to fund our work but with one baby admitted to neonatal care every five minutes we don’t have the resources to reach every baby who needs us. Your donation can help Bliss ensure every baby gets the best care.

Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>On the 27th October 2011 I will be participating in a charity white collar boxing evening at the Grange hotel, Saint Paul's.This is a great way to raise money for some very worthy causes and promises to be a great night out for those watching,&nbsp;with the added bonus for all attending&nbsp;seeing me get punched repeatedly in the face. This I can assure you is not something I relish, so I hope you can help soften the blows by donating here.</p> <p>The charity I have chosen to raise money for is called Bliss. The reason behind this choice is that my Brother Pete and my sister-in-law Celeste&nbsp;had&nbsp;a&nbsp;premature baby boy&nbsp;named Nathan&nbsp;Samuel Newson in&nbsp;January 2007.&nbsp;Nathan sadly passed away aged just six months. So the charity choice here was an easy&nbsp;was one for me to make, and I am really proud and pleased&nbsp;to&nbsp;have this opportunity to try and raise some&nbsp;money in memory of my nephew Nathan.&nbsp;</p> <p>Enjoy looking at the video of me being smacked and if it makes you laugh, or you just enjoyed seeing me get a punch in the face please do donate what you can to this fantastic charity. For those of you attending the fight I can assure you that you are in for a great evening and I&nbsp;hope you have a fun packed night watching me and my fellow Lloyd's market boxers apply our newly found fighting skills, or as&nbsp;in my case better defensive fighting skills.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p> <p>My thanks and warmest regards</p> <p>Paul</p>
