My story

 

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page.

**As you can see I have amazingly reached my own personal target. Please, please do not let this stop you donating. I would love to get another couple of hundred pounds for good measure. Thank you all for your support so far. If you have not sponsored me yet please do it now. I know the page says it ends on 28th of July but I will be closing this page down on MONDAY 12th MAY.**

On Saturday May 10th 2008 I will be doing a tandem Parachute jump from 10,000 feet. Freefalling at 120mph until we hit 5,000 feet when the parachute will be deployed.
Many of you visiting this page and donating will not have known Tony but that doesn't matter. Tony is the reason I am doing this, you will all have your own reasons for sponsoring me. Whatever the reasons are the important thing is that without your help Willen Hospice could not help the many, many people that need their care.
I am doing this because of a friend and work colleague who sadly died on June 28th 2007 from cancer. Tony spent his last few days at Willen Hospice. I am sure without that care Tony would not have passed as peacefully as he did. The care is amazing, the people are amazing and this is my way to give back a little something for the way they looked after Tony, my friend.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to donate: Willen Hospice will receive your money electronically and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in Gift Aid will be added to your donation at no cost to you.

Please donate generously.

Many thanks for your support.
