IRONMAN WALES · 24 January 2013

Every 2 hours, someone in the UK sustains a spinal cord injury. Their world – and that of their family – is turned upside-down. SIA aim to reach everyone affected by spinal cord injury, to connect them to all the help and support they need to life a fulfilled life.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I know that following my little bike ride in 2010 most of you wouldn't sponsor me for anything that isn't classed as mental and i can't think of much more physically demanding than this. I'm completing IRONMAN Wales, which is a 2.4mile swim (155 lengths of a pool) 112mile bike ride (London to Bristol) and a 26.4mile run (a full marathon)

I have chosen this charity because following my friend Alastair CARTER's accident in February 2012 where he ended up paralysed from the chest down the SIA have helped him with his transition (little triathlon punn). Always there to offer advice and support on care and various other topics when he needs it. They also send people of a similar level of injury injury to speak to Alastair to show what is possible. And as well as offering this help and support they are funding research into spinal injuries and treatment.

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 and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
