Hullo!

Please do generously support the development of the muscles on the other side of my legs, this poor cyclist is in danger of looking a bit lopsided.

I'm going to run the Royal Parks half marathon - hooray!

You might also want to support People & Planet, the most effective and empowering campaigning organisation in the UK. P&P is a network of uni/school groups who tackle the root causes of social and environmental injustice, supported by an office who do stuff like research and training. When I was in the Reading Uni group we:

 * Switched the Uni to a 100% green electricity contract
 * Got the Students' Union to go 100% Fairtrade, pushed it out across campus and contributed to Reading becoming a Fairtrade town
 * Raised £1000s for AIDS/HIV work, and showed students and staff that AIDS is a political issue

Your donation will help P&P activists work on campaigns that we have democratically chosen, rather than being constrained by the whims of trusts and foundations. It will make a big difference!

Find out more about P&P's amazing successes, also their fundraising FAQ.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: People & Planet 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.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.
