Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page. 

I have a rare progressive neurolological disease.It is caused by degeneration of nerve cells in specific areas of the brain. It has simularities to Parkinsonism but there is no known cure and drugs only have a limited effect.The Parkinson's Disease Society Research Division  is the best way  ahead in my opinion. 

I would like to donate 50% to Parkinson's Disease Society Research and 50% to The March and District Parkinson Branch as they are very supportive to my family and I. 

I have a long list of thank you's, I will start with my other jumpers Dr Mather my GP,my local mayor Trevor Quince my local prespective MP Stephen Barkley my sister's partner Jon Stables. My father in law Ray King and collegue's Roy, Martin, the Governors wife and Sarah .

And well done to Roy for loosing a stone and a half to make this jump.

As you can see I successfully jumped out of the plane 12,000 feet.  Thank you to the eight over jumpers who did brilliantly.  And well done to my instructor for an excellent flight.

To all of the people who have given genorously and believe me this does include the people on the numerous sponsor sheets doing the rounds.The RN & RM ex-boxers assocciation who have been SO generous. 

My daughter Nicole for her support along with her school Westwood junior by raising £280.00 for a pink and blue day non uniform and did I say what a great name (Westwood). My ever supporting wife Debbie who has worked so hard.

We are now collecting all sponsorship money, if you would like to sponsor me for this worthy cause then please do so.

Thank you to local media for all the coverage on this story.

A BIG thank you to everyone who has supported me and this worthy charity.

Tony.
