Story

Hi Guys - I am off to Africa and i need your help!!!

Thank you for all your support when i launched the site, a great super duper start

As many of you are aware i am adding to my obsession list. Raising money for Cancer Research is a new ingredient to my exsisting obsession with the BT Phonebook - thus a new addition to the Shelly chaos cocktail!!!!!

44 people die everyday in the UK alone from bowel cancer - it is the second highest cause of cancer death after lung cancer but is over 80% curable if caught early enough.

So...I am off to Africa in November to go and help renovate a remote school called Noordhoek Primary in Citrus Dal and their football pitch with the Bobby Moore Fund. All the money raised will go to Cancer Research UK. So two great things are happening here - Money being raised for charity and a school being built for the children.

With all thats changed this year I want to do something good - not to mention put myself in a situation where I have no access to my en-suite, wardrobe, make-up, straighteners and that lovely leather boat shape bed of mine.....yikes, have I really committed to this!!!!!!!???????!!!!

As some of you will know my nan is recovering from cancer now and that was my initial inspiration - my amazing strong nan. I think everyone at some point in their lives could do something good for charitly and this is my time.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure.  It has to be simple since most of you know that I hate computers! Its really easy but if anyone is unsure please email me shellywelly1@hotmail.com.

So please sponsor me nowwwwwwwwww so my site looks fatter than a sumo wrestlers belly 

Thank you Thank you Thank you

PS Since starting this page i have found some cordless hair straighteners - all my worries are over ;-)
