Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On Saturday 22nd September 2012 I will be taking part in a Parachute Jump to raise money and awareness for a charity close our family's hearts. First Steps Playgroup is a registered charity for children in West Lothian with additional needs. My friends twin boys Ross & Andrew have been attending since they were 1 year old, giving them the opportunity to attend a playgroup that can provide a suitable environment with specialist equipment. This has been instrumental to both their development and I want to make sure that the playgroup can continue to provide this support to other children in my community. I am also doing the 5K BUPA Run in October, but don't worry I will only be asking you for money once - you could say you're getting 2 for 1 - not bad for someone close to 60 ha ha!!! Thank you all in advance for your support. My daughters Sharlene Boyd & Jacqueline Souter are also doing the 5K Run with me on behalf of First Steps Playgroup.

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.
