Oct-Sober · 31 October 2014

EVERY 90 SECONDS someone in the UK is admitted to hospital with an acquired brain injury (ABI). There are many possible causes, such as a fall, a road traffic accident, an assault, a tumour or a stroke. A brain injury can happen to anyone, at any time. When it does, we're here to help

Story

Hey 

Thanks for visiting my sponsorship page. 

Will is one of my closest mates who I've known for over 20years and March last year he suffered an unexpected bleed. He's faced, conquered  and (to use the street slang) smashed many hurdles that have come his way in that time. This has all been with the fantastic support of Amy, their respective families, and the charity Headway

Will writes a weekly blog about what he's faced and overcome, which is well worth a read:

Unfortunately Just Giving wouldn't allow me to select Amy, the Woods, or the Perrings as where  I would like to donate my money, so Headway are the next best place :o).

From the stories both Will and Amy have told me they've been an integral part of Will's recuperation, and somewhere Will loves spending time at. Which is why I've given up alcohol for the whole October. 

This may sound easy, but the last time I went without alcohol for over a week was before I was led astray by Will, Dave and Gav, over 16years ago! 

Thanks for taking the time to read this and thank you so much for donating to this amazing and deserving charity.

Joe
