Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Last year my friend and colleague Andy Forbes suddenly & tragically passed away. It was a terrible shock to all those who knew him or heard about the news. Fortunately, the charity CRY (Cardiac Risk in the Young) were able to support & give some comfort to Andy's family. Shortly afterwards I had a medical and was declared 'unfit' but I was fortunate to have a choice and to change my lifestyle and get fitter!! I have therefore decided to set a goal to run the Bupa Great North Run (Half Marathon 13.1 miles) in memory of Andy and to raise money for CRY on September 20th 2009.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Cardiac Risk in the Young gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!
