My story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.

Back in 2001 I was diagnosed with Epilepsy after previously suffering a seizure in 1999 and then in 2001 whilst touring the USA, since then I have been on medication and in 2006 I suffered another seizure. Ultimately losing my driving licence for a third time and my medication being increased.

In 2006 I joined Epilepsy Action to learn more of the condition, and am now doing something to raise money big style.

On the 23rd August 2008 I and a friend shall be throwing ourselves out of a perfectly good plane at an altitude of between 10 - 12000ft. All funds raised shall be going to Epilepsy Action, this will in turn help their research and make people more aware of Epilepsy.

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

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.
