Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

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. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

As an independent recording artist, I have released a single especially for my existing fans in the lead-up to Christmas in each of the last two years.  This year, given developments within my family over the last year, I want to use the opportunity to encourage support for Dementia UK.

Steve Birkett and I both love Bridge Over Troubled Water and we enjoyed the challenge of creating our own version of a great classic.  Dementia has impacted on my family in the course of 2020 and this, together with everything that has happened in the wider world, brings a particular resonance to the lyrics.  We know that money is tight for many people, so we wanted to offer something free to our fans, whilst at the same time asking those who can afford it to make a contribution – however small – to a charity that does great work in supporting families dealing with dementia.

I am very grateful for any support you can give this worthy cause.
