About my charity
:
The Ellen MacArthur Trust
The Ellen MacArthur Trust takes young people aged between 8-18 sailing to help them regain their confidence, on their way to recovery from cancer, leukaemia and other serious illness.
Sailing is perfect for these children; it gives them a chance to test themselves in a safe and supportive environment. Simply the experience of going out on the water for the first time is an adventure. Each child has the challenge of helping sail the yachts throughout the voyage and takes part in all aspects of the trip from sailing the yacht to the washing up!
The children come from all over the country, including Northern Ireland, London, Essex, Sheffield, Dorset, Wiltshire, Hertfordshire, Hampshire, Kent, Nottingham & Ellen’s birthplace, Derbyshire.

| My personal message: |
Thanks for taking an interest in 'Snow Goose 2008', my project to sail round the UK during the summer of 2008.
I'd like to take the opportunity to raise some money for others, hence this site. I am also supporting the East Anglian Air Ambulance so if you'd like to donate to that instead of, or as well as the Ellen MacArthur Trust then you can go to my other justgiving site at www.justgiving.com/snowgoose2008eaaa.
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: East Anglian Air Ambulance will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.
If you don't want to donate via the internet then you can send a cheque made out to 'Andrew Moncrieff - Snow Goose 2008' to me at Hawkins, Cambridge Science Park, Milton Road, Cambridge. CB4 0FW.
My thanks to Hawkins, Key Capital Partners, Continuity and Sigma for their support in providing equipment without which I could not have set off.
If you'd like to check my progress go to www.hawkins.biz and follow the 'Snow Goose 2008' tab.
Many thanks for your support.
