Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Late last year a close friend of mine, Bob Smith and his wife Katie had their first child, a beautiful little girl named Autumn. Tragically Autumn fell very ill and required live saving treatment from the Bristol Children's Hospital. The level of care, compassion and support that she received was unbelievable and above and beyond what any loving new parents could have wished for.

Unfortunately this level of care comes at a cost.

To raise money for the Bristol Children's Hospital Wallace & Gromit's Grand Appeal I am going to be attempting a Guinness World Record, Most Weight Deadlifted in 60 sec. My target will be 5600kg which will be 140kg for 40 reps in 60 sec.

In my time I have not met a more caring couple, and now more loving and kind parents, than Bob and Katie. Please show your support for them and all the wonderful families who have been touched by the Bristol Children's Hospital by donating to my World Record Attempt.
