Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Last year I lost a very close friend to liver cancer - she was taken from us very suddenly. I wanted to raise some money for Macmillan (also the charity supported by my workplace) in her memory.

I'm not much of a marathon runner or mountain climber but as I love pop music and am up for an endurance test, what I can do is listen to the first 14 'NOW! That's What I Call Music' albums in order.

That's a lot of varied 80s music, some good, some terrible, and 433 tracks in all (hence the value of my fundraising target!) lasting for around 28 hours by my reckoning. I will be starting at 2pm on Thursday 19th March and therefore finishing at around 6pm on Friday 20th March.

To keep me going and to help you to join in, I will be using a Blog (which is https://noaxnow.wordpress.com/), Twitter (@NoaxNOW), and Facebook to post videos for each track as I go.

Please donate what you can - it costs £203 per day to fund a Macmillan nurse, and this is why I am completing the challenge on 20/3 by the way!

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
