My story

 

                     Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

    The Helen Arkyll Dyselexia Centre does wonderful work providing specialist tuition for people affected by dyslexia.  Did you know that Jackie Stewart, Richard Branson & Steve Redgrave all had to get around their dyslexia, but look what they have achieved.  
    
Each £1000 I raise for this very worthy cause could provided a full year's individual specialist tuition or could subsidise the training of a Specialist Teaching Assistant. But, however much I raise, it will help to change someone's life and help them to reach their full potential.  Please help me to raise as much as possible.

A little about me:
     The London Marathon 2009 falls just 8 days short of a very important day for me... the 10-year anniversary of the day when I was admitted to hospital and diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma.  
 After nearly a year of chemotherapy and many years of recovery my cancer is now in remission, although I am not without its legacy; periods of severe myalgia and incurable peripheral neuropathy are still with me.  However, I can't think of a better way to celebrate this anniversary than by continuing to refuse to let these difficulties stop me and by taking part in the London Marathon and thereby raising money to help other people realise their dreams and full potential. 

        So,  please, PLEASE sponsor me now! 
                              Thank you
