Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

2014 is the year for new starts and challenges. Most of you out there that know me, know that I have been regularly running for Cancer Research over the last couple of years since I lost my Dad to the illness, but this year I have decided to up my game and plan to do 12 challenges over the space of 12 months to raise £1200 for Cancer Research! Raising £100 a month should be easy...! 

Losing my Dad to cancer is the single toughest thing my family has had to face and I hope the money raised can go towards helping others who are unfortunate enough to have to go through this terrible journey. I hope one day we can beat cancer for good.

Throughout the 12 months I'm inviting friends, family, and colleagues to come take part with me in my challenges, as the more people that take part, the more potential donations.

I will keep this page regularly updated along with my Facebook so people can see how I am getting on. If there is a challenge you want to take part in, just let me know.

The list of 12 challenges is below, some dates are still to be finalised. The names next to the challenge are the confirmed people who are giving up their time to take part and also helping with the fund raising. So if you think you're up to the challenge or just want to push yourself to get fit, just let me know and I'll be more than grateful for your company!
