Story
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor me online.
I am trekking Cuba, to help others with disabilities like mine. I am a double below knee amputee. I was told in November 2003, I would never walk again. In 2005 I completed both the Flora London Marathon and the ING New York City Marathon, on my false legs. Plus lots of half Marathons and 10 km runs which included the Great South Run. After New York my consultants told me to rest my stumps for a year. So I decided to jump out of planes on the end of a parachute, to continue raising money for charity.
Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Douglas Bader Foundation 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!
Many thanks for your support.
