Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As many of you know, as well as running a successful school place planning consultancy working with many of the big housebuilding firms, I am also a big racing fan and am a Director of EPDS Racing - running exciting, ethical and enjoyable Racing Partnerships for jump racing. To learn more about EPDS Racing, please visit our website www.epds-racing.co.uk.

As part of our ethical approach we work closely with Racing Welfare, through direct donations from our Partners monthly fees and through sponsoring the EPDS Racing/Racing Welfare Best Turned Out series.

Back in February, Richard Negus of Racing Welfare kindly informed me that I'd be riding in the charity race on Augsut 18th, despite my never having sat on a horse! Cue many lessons at Cullinghood Riding Centre and at the British Racing School in Newmarket.

After just 3 months of lessons, I successfully completed my Chrituy Race Riders' Assesment day and am now looking forward to riding at Newmarket on the historic July course.

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.
