Thank you for visiting my diet fundraising page. Please sponsor me online - this is just a tiny part of GAT's 25th Anniversary fundraising programme.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Gloucestershire Arthritis Trust 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.

Controlling your weight is a key part of reducing the effect of Arthritis. I'm trying to lose 25lbs - 1lb for every year GAT has existed.

Since returning to work on January 2nd I lost 5.5lbs but then went on holiday to the Lake District and promptly put weight back on! But, I've got back on track and have now lost 7.5lbs thanks to the inspiration of Liz in the GAT office who's lost 10lbs herself.

So please continue to sponsor me now that I'm back on track.

Many thanks for your support so far go to Tom & Sarah, Roz & Will and Sue - let's hope there's more GAT supporters out there, somewhere. I've already raised my target from £250 to £500 as I raised £288.78 by mid April and there's another 7 and a bit months to go.
