I NOW AIM TO RAISE MORE MUCH NEEDED FUNDS BY RUNNING UP AND DOWN THE FAMOUS 199 STEPS UP TO THE ABBEY IN WHITBY, MADE FAMOUS BY BRAM STOKER WHERE HE WROTE THE STORY OF DRACULA.

I will be carrying a Wheelie Bin Secured to my Rucksack with the words 'Care for your CASUALTIES'

Those attending the event on Sunday 31st March 2013 and wishing to make a Donation to this very worthwhile Charity can simply throw their cash into my bin and I don't mind you making it even heavier for me to carry up the steps!!!

The Names of all Sponsors will be put into a draw for the chance to win a weekend for two in a nice B&B situated in the Famous Sea Side Town of Whitby and a lovely framed Photograph taken at night of the 199 Steps, steeped in History it would take Pride of Place in any Home.
