Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I must be mad eh??! To think of spending a Sunday morning hurling myself over the edge of a rather large tower in central London! Yes..... But just think of the views I'll be priviledged to see, launching myself off (with a little bit of professional help I hope) one of the tallest building in London that you can still legally abseil down. Plus I'll get a chance to gaze at some rather out of breath runners who are taking part in another big event going on that day!
I am raising money for the Guy's and St Thomas' Kidney Patient Association (GSTTKPA). The GSTTKPA supports kidney dialysis patients, organises social events for patients and their families, gives donations to support vital kidney research and well as many other smaller initiatives that make a real difference to peoples lives.
I actually work within the same building that I am going to abseil down, infact the same tower (but I only work on the 4th Floor). I've worked in London as a renal nurse for over 20 years (yes I am that old!), so feel that I have a fair knowledge of how kidney disease can impact on the lives of patients and their families. Consequently as an adventurous soul who likes to try new things, have fun in trying and with the added benefit of helping others at the same time.....I shall be there to try and earn some monies for a very good cause!
Please donate as little or as much as you can...and don't forget to leave me a message in support....
Thank you. Vanda
