Story
I am on the fund raising committee which was started back commenced in August 2008 and was set up initially in response to a challenge lay down by the ladies of the Nags head pub (Nags Wags) in Ramsden Heath who raised over £5,000 2007/08 for breast cancer. Well! we couldn't say no so to this challenge and formed a committee (The Nags Stags) and choose to support the Hamelin Trust charity to better it. http://www.hamelintrust.org.uk/
Me and a couple of other people from the pub are I am taking part in a Tandem Parachute Jump on Saturday 11th July 09 and hope to raise money for a special project at Hamelin House for the older children at the centre to have a T.V lounge and kitchen and have more impendence away from the very young children who stay at the centre.
Hamelin Trust is a leading Essex based charity which supports people with learning disabilities and their families. They provide short break services, a resource centre, supported accommodation, and outreach services within the community and individual's homes. They also provide training and employment opportunities through a number of independent and joint ventures.
I would be exceptionally grateful if you would consider sponsoring me.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Hamelin 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.
Since August last year we have raised to date over £15000 with various fund rising events the biggest being a black tie ball for 250 people.
We had planned to fund raise for just one year but we have all become very close to the efforts and work that Hamelin Trust do for the people Essex, who knows we could be back next year with hands out.
So dig deep give as much you can and trust me it is going to a very good cause.
