THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU. THE AMAZING PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN INVOLVED in the COLOUR WHEEL APPEAL

I have had the most FANTASTIC time working for my challenge.  The people I have met, the places I have been the events I have enjoyed were all far beyond my wildest dreams.  The hope was to get one dog and now we have three.  You are all amazing for without your support the appeal would not have been the success it has turned out to be. 

I am taking things a bit easier now but I hope the support for Canine Partners will continue.  Groups I have visited like North Barn Quilters on my Scotland Challenge, and many others have carried on fund raising for Canine Partners, and so many more people are becoming aware of our wonderful dogs and the lives they change. 

A huge huge thank you to everyone from Stella and Jenson

THE NEXT BIG CHALLENGE IS ONE FOR ME!!!  I AM OFF AROUND SCOTLAND WITH ONLY JENSON FOR SUPPORT

THE AIM TO PROVE THAT A CANINE PARTNER REALLY DOES CHANGE YOUR LIFE IN ALL AREAS IF YOU ARE WILLING TO TAKE THE PLUNG.

I will be starting off from home on the 11th of April 2012 and the first stop will be at Caterick to meet up with Matthew Kinsell who did the huge sky dive for our fund raising.  Then it is off around Scotland on a fully packed schedule travelling North, South, East and West giving talks and doing workshops all to raise awareness and funds for Canine Partners.  

It will not be easy and it will be physically painful, but if it does not push me then it is not a challenge.   

Please give me your support to reach my goal of sponsoring another dog for someone else with a disability.

 

Now the guys from the megga ride around the coast have taken us to new heights in the fund raising setting of with a target of £350 and finishing with £1111 is just amazing.  Well done John and team what a fantastic thing to achieve.  Heaps of thanks from us both xx Stella and Jenson

 MATTHEW KINSELL'S SKYDIVE FROM 15,000 FT OVER LAKE TAUPO, NZ - IN FULL SUPPORT OF STELLA'S CAMPAIGN!  

PLEASE READ STELLA'S STORY BELOW...

When I was told I was going to have a dog to help me with my disability I found it very hard to comprehend how it was going to work out.  Little did I know just how much my life was going to change with Jenson in it.  He has opened up my world to such a degree that there is nothing I won't consider doing with Jenson at my side.  I can manage in my own home with minimal  assistance. I can shop independently for the first time in years. I have a full and hectic social life! But most of all Jenson makes me smile every day and that alone is worth its weight in gold.  Please help us raise the £10,000 to sponsor another dog for someone with a disability.

THANK YOU to all who have donated so far. Stella and Jenson

A MESSAGE FROM MATTHEW KINSELL

What a great cause!  I cannot tell you how supportive I am of Stella's charity campaign and I didn't realise the difference a dog like Jenson could make to someone's life.

I am completely behind 'The Colour Wheel Appeal', so much so that I'm prepared to jump out of a plane to support this worthy cause.

The skydive is to take place during our honeymoon in New Zealand between the 19th and 23rd December 2010.  Date to be confirmed weather permitting.

Location of the skydive is over the beautiful Lake Taupo in the North Island at 15,000 feet.

I'm doing the hard bit with the support of my wife Nicola. All you have to do is donate generously.

Thank you for your support.
