Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm cycling from London - Paris from 27 June - 1 July 2012. Its almost 300 miles in 4 days. I'm doing it in honour of my dad who died recently. In his latter years he suffered from dementia. He loved sport all his life and right up till dementia set in, was walking 6 miles a day. I'll be honest, this is for me as well. It will be a great challenge, both physically and mentally. I need to shift a few pounds. I need a challenge. This is it!

Donations are appreciated but I'll happily do a pop music quiz for your workplace or social group. A bit of joint fundraising? Music and a fun night out for good causes has to be a win-win. Have a look at my pop music quiz site and see if we can do something?

Dementia is increasingly common. Anyone who has or has had a loved one with dementia will know what a cruel disease this can be. This is why I'm doing my wee bit for the Alzheimer's Society.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
