My story

 

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

I am lucky enough this year to have been granted a Sabbatical by the Diocese and as part of it in June I will be driving a Caterham / Lotus 7 from St James Bourton near Shrivenham to the shrine of St James at Santiago de Compostela inNorthern Spain. As part of this trip I intend to raise money for Leukaemia Research the charity support by the Lotus 7 Club.

It will involve me driving around 3000 miles the equivalent of driving from the East to the West coast of the US or about 200 miles a day avoiding all motorways and in this little car you feel every single mile through your whole body. It would be great if I could raise £3000 or a £1 per mile so please help me to reach this target. Every contribution not matter what the size is greatly appreciated.

 

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Leukaemia Research 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.

You can follow the whole adventure on my BLOG www.s7fop.blogspot.com and please pray for me an all my fellow pilgrims.  

 

Blessings
