Story

Happy New Year.

I am a founder Trustee of Rochdale Connections Trust. This year we won the Queen's Award for Voluntary Service. We train Volunteer Mentors to NVQ 2 and match them with disaffected youngsters.

I was 60 years old on 14th November and I have pledged to fund training for 60 new Mentors to celebrate my 60 years. We had a party at Rochdale Town Hall on Saturday 18th November and following that, thanks to my generous relatives and friends, I am over half way to my target.

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. The rest of the funds will be the hardest to raise so please dig deep and sponsor me online.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Rochdale Connections Trust 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.
