My story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Help reach the target and make a big difference to people all over the planet and right here in the UK!

This is one of the biggest abseils I've done at a terrifyingly high 195ft! I've reached my minimum target of £85 (Thank you to everybody who's helped) and now I'm aiming for £195 a pound for every foot!

“It’s scary every time but an amazing feeling too and all for a good cause”

I'm also a First Aid volunteer with the Red Cross, so you’ll soon see me at events like Tigers matches, motor-cross events and even the occasional theatre show with bandages at the ready. I'm also looking to join the Fire and Emergency Support Service a vital service in the uk and right here in Leicester.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: British Red Cross 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 and make a world of difference
