<p><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>On 12th February at 2pm, I'll be taking the 170 foot&nbsp; plunge from the top of Middlesbrough's Transporter Bridge in memory of my uncle Neil who passed away last month after a brave battle with cancer. All proceeds from the jump will be donated to Teesside Hospice, whos staff and services helped Neil and his family at such a difficult time. </strong></span></p> <p><span style="color: #000000;">Teesside Hospice exists to enhance the quality of life for those suffering from life limiting illnesses. They provide a range of services for patients, families and carers, helping over 3,000 people in the Teesside area. Their annual running costs are in excess of &pound;2.2 million. They receive in the region of one third of these costs from the local NHS and must therefore raise approximately &pound;4,400 each and every day of the year from their own resources and fundraising activities.</span></p> <p><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong>PLEASE GIVE WHATEVER YOU CAN TO SUPPORT THIS EVENT.</strong></span><strong></strong></span></p> <p><strong><span style="color: #000000;">THANK YOU.</span><br></strong></p>
