Story
Im trying to raise money for the family of my friend Jamie Styles, who sadly died after being knocked from his motorbike in Nuneaton on Tuesday 21 February 2017.
Jamie was due to be a dad for the first time to a little girl in just a few weeks. I want to raise money to help provide for his daughter, just like he would have wanted.
While Jamie was well into his cars, bikes and rugby, my thing is skateboarding.
So.... Next week on Saturday 4th at around 12 midday I'm going to be skating from my hometown of Bedworth at all the way to London, it's roughly 100 miles and walking it would take around 32 hours if you didn't stop.
My final destination is the 'House of Vans' skatepark, it's right by Westminster bridge in Central London.
I'm going to film the whole trip (filming's also my thing) and will be live-streaming parts of it onto Facebook.
I hope you'll agree this is a real challenge, especially as I have never done anything like this before.
Please help me to help Jamie's family by donating.
I don't drink so if you want to buy me a beer, please just donate £3 instead.
Thanks for all your support :)

7 years agoI'm so humbled by everyone's generosity, I setup this page thinking I might raise £100 but we've passed the £1,000 mark! I've setup a Facebook page that I will be sending updates from and I'll use it to livestream from on the day so anyone can watch. You can like the page here: https://www.facebook.com/SkateForJamie
