Hello,
Between the 23 January and 1 February 2009 I Will be climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest free standing mountain in the world, to raise funds for the Alzheimer's Society.
It's a charity very close to my heart as my father, who died in 2002, lived with dementia for the last 8 years of his life. The impact on our family was immense and it was starkly apparent during that period the lack of care and support readily available on the NHS. The support and advice that the Alzheimer's society provided during my father's illness was invaluable. I'd like to give something back now. The funds I hope to raise will help provide more support for carers and people with dementia and aid the research to find a cure.
Here's a few words from JustGiving.com
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor: Alzheimer's Society will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.
So please sponsor me now and dig as deep as you can!
Thanks for your support.
Dan
