Hello you lovely people, you're looking especially beautiful/handsome today. Thanks for visiting my JustGiving page.

On account of the fact that 1) I want to raise some money for the MS Society, 2) I have this degenerative neurological disease meaning I spend too much time sitting on my bum doing not very much, and 3) I think clouds are pretty and want to be near them, I've decided to do a sponsored parachute jump. Doing this will conveniently 1) raise money for the MS Society, 2) give me some kind of adrenalin rush, and 3) get me as close to a cloud as I'll ever get in my life.

On account of my weak legs, I'll have to do a tandem jump, otherwise I'd probably break my legs on landing.

Once you've made your donation, why not reward yourself by having a nice cup of tea and a sit down (maybe with a biscuit or two) as you imagine me hurtling through the air at over a hundred miles an hour. Or think about how your donation will go towards paying for things like home adaptations or respite care for those with MS, or funding research into finding better treatments for those of us with MS.

Thanks, you wondrous people!
