Hi there,

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. Most of you will know that I have never done anything like this before, so the Great North Run is a big challenge for me.

Mercy Ships provide much needed support around the world to people far less fortunate than us. Please dig deep and sponsor me online. Every amount no matter how small will benefit this worthwhile charity. You can see more about the fantastic work they do at www.mercyships.org.uk.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Mercy Ships 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. Please tick for gift aid-it won't cost you a penny more!

Please sponsor me now. Go on, you know you want to!

Many thanks for your support.

Rob
