Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Brendan died from cancer in May 2005 aged only 15 after battling the disease for 3 years.  Many of my ex-Army colleagues will know the Oakes family well.  Val and Mark set up the trust at Brendan's request to help other teenagers, in a similar situation to himself, experience adventurous and exciting activities, The charity is very small in comparison but gives a massive boost to youngsters and I want to help ensure that continues.

I successfully cycled the  57 miles on my trusty old treader (which is not a road bike!). It wasn't fast or pretty but I finished.

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.
