We're dedicated to beating blood cancer. We fund research and support those affected. Since 1960, we've invested over £500 million in blood cancer research, transforming treatments and saving lives. The day we beat blood cancer is now in sight and our researchers are determined to finish the job.

Story

I've set up this JustGiving page for donations to my Blues Cruze.

On the 30th of June 2010 I left Bristol docks with the morning tide in the Queen Vick a 5.4 metre self built outrigger sailing canoe. I then sailed round parts of the south coast, up the River Yare and arrived in Norwich on the 30th of July.

The other part of the trip was to play blues gigs in pubs and clubs as I went round to raise money partly for LLR fund and also for the RNLI (for obvious reasons). I did 18 gigs and raised £1,791.30 for the LLR fund and £635 for local RNLI around the coast.

 I've set up a web site http://simonsbluescruze.moonfruit.com so you can see how I got on.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
