Welcome to my fundraising page!.

Part of the deal for me competing in this is that I have to raise plenty of money for a worthy cause. Help for Heroes, a charity very close to my own heart (yes, I do have a heart) that supports military servicemen & women injured in the conflicts in Iraq & Afghanistan. With my grandfather, uncle, brother & friends having served/serving or waiting to serve, it is a charity I feel particularly strongly about.  That said, my brother seems hell bent on killing himself parachuting so god knows whether they will actually get him as far as a war zone before he pastes himself on Salisbury Plain somewhere. Grandpa Bill, Uncle Hamish and Bags, this one is for you.
