In 2015 and 2016 I was fortunate with the support of family, friends, colleagues, and the generosity of the travel industry to raise money for ABTA Lifeline and Just a Drop which helped change people's lives. After a rest year in 2017, I want to make a difference in 2018, and that's why I'm going to be doing everything I can to raise money for the Teenage Cancer Trust.

Seven young people are diagnosed with Cancer every day in the UK, and as a dad of two young girls I love beyond compare, that scares the life out of me. The work they do is incredible, and I'd like to help.

In previous years I've set out a fixed schedule of events, but this year I'm going to try and do even more than previous, and I'll add updates to my activities as the year goes on. As a start however I've committed to the below - Hopefully that's enough to show I mean business!

Thank you.
