Donations cannot currently be made to this page
For those of us lucky enough to have known him, John-Henry was a pretty remarkable chap with an enviable zest for life and a truly contented approach to everything he did. The fund was set up by his family and close friends to ensure that these qualities would continue to be celebrated and be a legacy to him.

Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>I am off again but this time to Paris. &nbsp;You may think this will be easy for me but I have not done a big cycle in 3 years so I am out of practice.&nbsp; I am trying to raise a &pound;3&nbsp;for every mile I cycle. &nbsp;</p> <p>I am raising money for the John Henry Memorial Fund. &nbsp;John was a dear friend of mine and liked a good challenge. &nbsp;I will just need to think of him and that will stop me from getting off my bike and pushing.&nbsp;</p> <p>As a trustee of the Fund I know that the money goes to some amazing causes - Medic Malawi, Christian Aid and Maggie's Centre to name but a few.</p> <p>The focus of the JHMF is to fund specific projects linked to the care of people afflicted with cancer or projects and research that tackle public health in East Africa.</p> <p>For more info go to&nbsp;<a href="http://www.johnhenrymf.org/about.htm">http://www.johnhenrymf.org/about.htm</a></p> <p>I am actually cycling with a group who are raising money for Alzheimer's Society; which is also a fantastic cause. &nbsp;If you would like to donate to them instead please go to&nbsp;<a href="http://alzheimers.org.uk/site/scripts/home_info.php?homepageID=224">http://alzheimers.org.uk/site/scripts/home_info.php?homepageID=224</a></p> <p>A big thank you in advance,</p> <p>Rachel&nbsp;</p>
