Story

Unable to join the Bone Marrow Register?  Or just want to help even more?  Read on...

If you've come to this page, this means you're curious about sponsoring me and helping people with blood cancer.  YAY FOR YOU!!!!

As you probably know, I've been on the Bone Marrow List for years, and this summer I was flagged as a best match for someone needing a stem cell donation to save their life.  I did it (woo) and was completely wowed by the way the charity Anthony Nolan coordinated the whole thing (education, trains, hotels, appointments, home visits, food, etc!) and supported me throughout (they're still calling to check I'm ok).  

I was so thoroughly impressed that I wanted to do even more.  So here I am!  I can't run but I've taken on the challenge to RUN TEN MILES in the Great South Run on 28th October to raise money for the Anthony Nolan Trust.  And believe me, this will be harder for me than the stem cell donation itself!

Please donate anything.  Even a quid.  If all my facebook friends just give £1, I'd smash my target.  That's not even the price of a small Latte.

Thank you so much you generous jublies!!!
