Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I have arranged to complete a ‘Wing Walk’ on Sunday 29th August for my favourite charity: Cleft Lip and Palate Association (CLAPA). My son Tom was born with Bilateral Clefts to both Palate and Lips, basically without much of a face at all! He has had several major operations and hundreds of procedures to his face, which has basically been rebuilt. Due to the dedication of McIndoe clinic surgeons at CLAPA East Grinstead. My son has been able to become a brilliant singer, actor and Musician. He obtained a Music Scholarship to Hurstpierpoint College and he is now studying at Bath University Drama and Commercial Music. He has starred in many productions and has had lead roles in: Phantom of the Opera, Chess, West Side Story, Oklahoma and many others.

I am his proud father who wants to GIVE SOMETHING BACK to CLAPA – so with immense trepidation I’m standing on top of a biplane doing 120mph and a loop-the-loop. I’d really appreciate your support.

Thank you.
