Hey there everybody - as you may or may not know - I suffered a significant brain injury in 2008. This was a life-changing event and I've been battling with the consequences ever since.

I've had help from so many people - professional and non-professional - but Headway UK has been a constant support for me. I still use their brain injury forum particularly when I hit rock bottom, where I can connect with other survivors. It means so much to me to find other people who can properly understand.

So, the point is, I would love to raise some money for Headway to support the good work that they do and I also need to lose the weight I've gained since my own injury. I believe it's one of the vital next steps I need to rebuild my self-esteem and start recovering my life. I think that setting a challenge like this will provide me with the motivation and encouragement that I need to succeed.

I was therefore thinking I could do a sponsored weight-loss. Would you sponsor me to reach my goal?

The donations would help Headway to support people like myself, to better understand and overcome the consequences of their brain injuries - something that I know only too well.

Please have a look at my sponsorship page. All donations and support would be very much welcomed.

Thank you all so much.
