Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my page.
I have been a member of Headway for 8 years, a charity that helps and brings together people who have suffered head injuries.
In 2013 I sustained a traumatic brain injury. As a result my mobility and speech was greatly affected. I, along with my family faced a difficult time. Headway supported us and we found a new way to be a family again. I cannot thank them enough for assisting with the transition from Keith then to Keith now.
I am now a committee member and see myself as the mouthpiece between patrons and comittee. Headway has been invaluable to people such as myself.
As a fund raising idea Headway suggested a parachute jump. Being in the RAF for 23 years I thought old hat, but if the truth be told, shit scared. Instead, I suggested a sponsored virtual bike ride, Lands End to John O Groats, 603 miles. We are doing it! The month of September for two weeks will see a team of Headway Blackpool, Wyre and Fylde members do just that. I ask that you might sponsor me in this endevour. I would love for you to help me to raise funds for this wonderful organisation. Your donation would help to support those who have sustained a brain injury, like myself, and their family during a very traumatic time. Headway solely relies on fundraising and donations to continue their good work. Any donation big or small is greatly appreciated by us all. Thank you, Keith.
