Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In January, my lovely friend Sue and I will be undertaking an Arctic Challenge to raise funds for the National Literacy Trust.

Giving children the best start in life has always been very important to me. The National Literacy Trust helps to change the life stories of young children and their families. One in five 5-to-8 year old do not own books in the UK. Every child should have access to books. Please help to empower children with the literacy skills they need to succeed in life.
