Story

Hi! Thanks for taking the time to visit my Just Giving page. 2012 isn't only Olympic year, it also marks 25 years since I was diagnosed with Testicular Cancer. How do you mark such a momentous occasion? Well, I'll be running(?) the Virgin London Marathon. Mad isn't it? Especially as before starting training I'd only ever run 3 miles. Why Orchid? Orchid is a charity looking for cures for male cancers but most importantly (to me) it was co-founded by Prof Tim Oliver, the consultant responsible for my treatment.

So please, push the button and DONATE now. Every little helps and it'll be great to have your support!

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 and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
