Story

Thanks for visiting our JustGiving page in memory of Annee's mum Joyce, Susan's mum Maureen - both much loved and missed - and the other good people no longer with us.

Quite simply, it seemed like a good idea at the time.  We realise we are mad and I am not aware getting naked is something any of us have done in public before, or are likely to again. We're never going to run a marathon or jump out a plane, and as this requires no skill or training, we're quids in.

The serious side is we really want to raise £1,000 for Marie Curie who nurse people in their last few days, mainly in their own homes, in familiar surroundings and with their relatives and friends around them.  It's a simple choice we should all have, but cannot always be offered if funding for nurses is not maintained.  If we raise £1,000, that will pay for 50 hours of care which will make a huge difference to someone, somewhere.

Please give as little or as much as you can, and thank your lucky stars you came up with a good excuse not to do it yourself!

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 and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
