Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Every year or so, I undertake a challenge for charity. Starting at Aintree on 7 April 2022, I set a target to visit every English racecourse in a year to raise funds for Prostate Cancer UK. 

To date, I have visited 47 out of the 51 courses, but the year has come to an endUnfortunately, a combination of personal circumstances, train strikes and inclement weather conspired against my original timetable.

However, I am not to be defeated, and my revised schedule means I should still complete the challenge in just 16 months! As I chalk off the courses, I'll update here with news and photos from the day. 

Every meeting, I take a small pot to place a bet on each race. If I have a winning meeting, any profit is added to the fundraising total but, if I lose, that's down to my poor selections! 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. 

Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
