Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On 25 September I shall be walking, climbing and stumbling up and down 25 miles across the 3 highest peaks in Yorkshire.

I have decided to raise money this year for the Sir Bobby Robson Cancer Trials Research Unit at the Freeman Hospital in Newcastle in memory of a wonderful lady who worked at the Newcastle Commercial Centre.  Lesley passed away in July this year and is sadly missed by her husband Jim, her son Nathan - aged 7, her family and all her very many friends both inside and outside the bank.  

At the Research Unit (one of only 2 in the country) much tremendous work is being done in seeking a cure for cancer as well as researching and trialling new drugs to slow down the impact of this horrible disease.  Unfortunately, the aggressive nature of Lesley's cancer meant a cure was not possible but hopefully the money raised in Lesley's name will help future sufferers. 

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 and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now - thank you so much.
