Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page, which I have setup to help raise money for CLIC Sargent, which is the children’s cancer charity.  Every day 10 families are told that their child has cancer. Diagnosis often comes as a shock. Treatment usually starts straightaway and can last up to three years. As the children cancer’s charity, CLIC Sargent is there… with clinical, practical and emotional support, every step of the way.

I have seen many friends of my family and family members lost to this disease and I felt that it was time I tried to do my bit to help this cause.  I also want to try and raise awareness through music and become more active in life, trying to use my hobby in a positive way.

The tracks have now been picked and they are:

1 Don't Fear the Reaper - Blue Oyster Cult
2 Teen Spirit - Nirvana
3 Hotel California - Eagles
4 Stairway to Heaven - Led Zeppelin
5 One original track by me

At this stage I am not looking to raise a lot of money, but obviously I want to do as well as I can!!

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
