Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. I really appreciate it.

Those of you who know me well enough will know that I am an animal lover. You may also know that I have made a habit of, every 5 years, doing something crazy to raise money for animal charities! Since I've already done a sponsored tandem hang glide at 30, a sponsored tandem skydive at 35, and a sponsored wing walk at 40, I thought a sponsored tandem base jump would be the best thing to do next!

This time I have chosen Animal Free Research UK (formerly the Dr Hadwen Trust). They are driving ethical, evidence based research to fight, prevent and cure human diseases. And they’re doing it by investing in the most innovative research which focuses on humans without the use of animals. They are creating a future where animals are no longer used in medical research, where scientists focus on new techniques which are human relevant, giving better outcomes for everyone, people and animals alike. With your amazing support, they can advance human health and end the use of animals in medical research, forever. If you'd like to find out more, go to www.animalfreeresearchuk.org. 

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.

Thanks a lot!
