Story

As most of you know, my Dad was diagnosed in June 2009 with Mesothelioma, which is a type of lung cancer caused by Asbestos fibres getting into your lung. This is caused by people working primarily in the building trade, electricians, plumbers, shipbuilders, bricklayers etc... However my Dad never did any of these.


We want to help support the continued research into this incurable disease, help the charities that continue to help victims and their families, and hopefully help towards finding a cure one day...


I'll be doing the traithlon in Tatton Park in Cheshire on the 18th of September. The triathlon I am doing is a quarter of an Olympic triathlon, and it contains a 400m swim in open water, a 9.5km bike ride, and a 2.5km run to finish off. If any of you think that sounds easy, get in touch and you can do it with me, anyone that does it with me can help raise even more money, and I will appreciate this more than you can imagine.


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.


Thanks, 

Danny & the whole family.
