My story

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.

For those of you that don’t know, I recently broke my ankle playing rugby, which I think has all but ended my rugby career. I am currently laid up with a non weight bearing cast.

Trying to turn a negative into a positive, I have decided to raise funds for Sue Ryder whilst I am laid up by growing a beard, which will be shaved off on the day that I lose my cast – I am on week 3, apparently another 4-6 to go!

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