On Friday 14th October 2011 I will be dressing as Smurfette - a belated Blue Day challenge.

I really wanted to do something in memory of my friend Karl, who lost his battle with testicular cancer in March this year. Whilst he was receiving treatment, he asked people to support the Teenage Cancer Trust as they do such good things - he had a state of the art private room all provided by the charity.

On Tuesday 18th October, Karl would have been 23, so it felt right to try & raise some money. And if I can do that by looking a little bit daft, it's totally worth it.

So if you could dig deep and sponsor me absolutely anything, it would mean the world, and hopefully help somebody who is in a similar situation as my friend was.

Thank you x
