Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.  You probably know that it's a bit of a sad time of year when we all remember Charles' death (and hopefully his life too), and I remember how lucky I was to share so many years with him, as we go past the dates of what would have been our 31st Wedding anniversary and his 59th Birthday.  So, to make sure that something good comes out of something sad, and in Charles's inimitable spirit, I'm doing a walk next weekend from Leighton Buzzard to Milton Keynes (and back again - 22 miles in total) to raist money for Brain Tumour Research. I shall also be remembering my friend Ruth Oliver and  Warren Brewer, both of whose lives ended at far too young an age through brain tumours.

You have all been incredibly generous in sponsoring me for LEJOG, so a few 'groats' will do (if any remain at the bottom of your pockets).  If you can spare a fiver, then I know it will go to a good cause and keep up Charles's tradition of raising money for worthwhile charities.

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.

Brain tumours kill more children and adults under the age of 40 than any other cancer. Just 1% of the national spend on cancer research has been allocated to this disease. We are a leading voice calling for support and action for research into what is called the last battleground against cancer.
