Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I've convinced Lynn to join me on a little adventure (to be honest it didn't take much convincing - she's pretty happy to do madcap things!!) to remember those I have lost & to raise funds for the British Heart Foundation.  8 years ago I lost my dad Tommy, 18 months ago my brother Martin and a month ago my mum Myra, all to Heart Disease.  I have lost all those I grew up with and I would like to do something positive to try to help ensure other families don't lose so many loved ones.

This overnight non-stop trek will take its toll on our feet (but we hope not on our friendship).  Starting in Kelvingrove Park on the morning of Saturday 30th July and finishing in Edinburgh City Centre by 1pm on Sunday 31st July, we will walk through the night along much of the Forth and Clyde canal & pass the Falkirk Wheel.  

We have many miles of training to put in over the next 8 weeks - please consider sponsoring with us to make the blisters and aches worthwhile.  My son, Angus thinks we're just doing it for the free massage.  Every single penny will make a difference.

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. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
