My friend, Richard Astle, is Chairman of the nationwide charity, Shine. To celebrate his 10th year as Chair, Richard is raising £25,000 to help Shine build their pioneering health centre, based in Peterborough, for their members to have more readily available access to a wide range of much needed health services

Please donate - this is a SERIOUS challenge!!  100km in the Sahara desert in sweltering heat.  I need your encouragement through your donations!

Shine supports anyone affected by spina bifida and/or hydrocephalus. These conditions may be unfamiliar to you but 1 in 1,000 children are affected by hydrocephalus, and every day, two women learn that their unborn baby has spina bifida.
