Story

Dear lovely person,

 

You can travel with me to Cuba – if you give me ten quid!

 

I’ve signed up to Cycle Cuba, a gruelling 370k bike ride around Cuba to raise funds and awareness for Women for Women**, the charity founded by Professor Robert Winston (www.theirwebsite.com)

 

My aim is to raise £3,000 and I intend to do this by selling ‘name space’ on my T-Shirt. For just £10 you will receive the following amazing benefits:

 

ü      Your name printed across my T-Shirt, which will be worn as I bike ride my way across the island of Cuba with the Women for Women challenge girls. 

 

ü      Access to my unintentionally funny internet diary which will keep you up to date with my efforts to fundraise, my determination to gain body beautiful and supreme fitness -  from Hilda Ogden to Elle Macpherson in less than twelve months! - and a day by day account of the Challenge itself

 

ü      The knowledge that your name will be seen by hundreds and hundreds of people on another continent, literally thousands of miles way. Who knows who might see it? Who might wonder who you are? Just think, this personal advertisement might change your life forever… on the other hand, it might not but the donation you make will help to change the lives of others.

 

And where will your name appear? It could be on the front blazoned across my chest, but then again in could be under my arm! but, wherever it is, it will remain close to my heart!

 

And this is how you do it….

** I feel very strongly about this charity, as a young women I suffered terribly with problems, although lucky enough to have 3 grown up healthy daughters they were all born premature, I also lost a daughter at 3 months old, and if I could prevent one person from suffering from the same loss by doing this challenge it will be worth it. If you can afford more than £10, then please, please make the donation even if you cannot afford the £10 I would be grateful for any amount that you can afford to give.
