My story

 

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

On 14th July 2009 this 60 year old, who is scared of heights, will sky dive from 13,000 feet over Oxfordshire to raise funds for Tyne and Wear Autistic Society.

Tyne and Wear Autistic Society, based in Sunderland ,do fantastic work to improve the lives of children and young people with autism. My son Stephen, now 32, has spent the greater part of his life in their care, and with many other vulnerable young people has been able to enjoy a good quality of life as a result.  I like many other parents of autistic children will never be able to repay the dedication, professionalism and kindness that they show every day.

Please help me to contribute to the excellent work they do with your generous support.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Tyne And Wear Autistic Society gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!
