Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

I am tandem skydiving from an aeroplane all in aid of charity.  Taking place on Tuesday 14th April, drop zone being in Hinton Airfield which is on the Northamptonshire / Oxfordshire border.  If you want to come watch please do.  Information available on http://www.skydive.co.uk/res_website.asp?supplierCode=HIN100

The charity I have chosen to raise money for is Epilepsy Action and this is due to my 20 month year old son being diagnosed late 2008 with Partial Epilepsy.  For months we went through hell while he was in and out of hospital.  He was having 5-6 seizures in a day every two weeks.  When we eventually got a diagnosis we were partly relieved and we are pleased to say that the medication is now working.  It is taking a while to get used too and we have recently found out that if you miss a dosage then it can cause upset and sometimes many seizures.  It is necessary to keep the blood stream constant with correct measure of medication. There are many children and adults with epilepsy that need our help so please donate. Epilepsy Action provide not just information online but volunteers who can priovde one to one assistance.

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