Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I celebrated my 90th birthday just before the lockdown and would like to do something special to mark the occasion, in gratitude for my long life and good health and family who look after me so well since my wife died in a tragic accident a few years ago. 

I met Bosco, the project leader of J-Life in Burundi at my daughter's house in Hertfordshire a couple of years ago. He is a lovely guy and I would really love to help him raise some funds for his amazing work to bring hope to the extremely poor communities where his project works. They reach forgotten people in very remote areas which were very badly affected by the civil war. 

They provide education, training and help to set up community enterprises such as a soap making business run by a cooperative of widows. They are helping the whole community get to the know the love of God in practical and spiritual ways, bringing hope and lasting change for good.

The project has lost some key funding because of COVID and any donation you can make will make a real difference.

Anyone who knows me will tell you that doing any exercise at all is a challenge for me.

I am grateful to my amazing personal trainer Iljoesja who has undertaken the challenge of trying to get me to get moving!

THANK YOU!
