Dear Relative / Friend / Colleague,

As some of you may know, I am walking the Tour Du Mont Blanc on 23rd June 2008. This is an 11 day, 200km Trek around the Mont Blanc Massif staying in mountain refuges and taking in France, Switzerland and Italy.

It has been an ambition of mine to undertake this walk for some time, and rather than just do it for my self, I want to take the opportunity to raise money for a charity close to my heart -- Alzheimers.

My Mum suffers from this disease and I want to do my bit to raise awareness, and ensure that sufferers and carers benefit as much as possible.

So, please dig deep and sponsor me online. The target is a challenging one, and spending 11 nights in huts and walking 6 hours a day isn't going to be a walk in the park!

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Alzheimer's Society will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.
