Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page

Today I took part in CurveMotion's Skateathon.  I only went there to check out their recycling for National Zero Waste Week as well as donate some cash and do a few laps but then I unexpectedly committed myself to skate 50 laps for their fundraiser for St Nicholas Hospice.  I never thought I could ever make it past 25, but several tumbles and a couple of hours later, I'd skated 211 laps, which was equal to the distance of a half marathon.

What a way to finish Zero Waste Week, if you've had a great time with National Zero Waste Week or have been entertained by the 1000 bin challenge, or are simply falling off your chair at the image of  Shedwyn bumbling about on roller skates, it would be great if you could support this fundraiser to raise money for St Nicholas Hospice.

Thank you, any help you can give would be very much appreciated.

Big hugs
