Story

Hey everyone,

I am raising money for a little girl called vivi, she is 6 years old and has spastic diplegia cerebral palsy. Her condition affects all 4 of her limbs, but has a particularly profound effect on her lower body, legs and feet.

Vivi is trying to raise £50,000 for an operation which would vastly help her mobility, for a girl who's dream it is to be a dancer, I think together we can help her on her way.

Ok, this is what I'm doing to help, on Saturday 23rd June at 7am at David Lloyd Oxford I will be starting a 36 hour Tennis Marathon were I will be teaching tennis lessons straight through to Sunday 24th June 7pm without stopping, yes through the night as well. Every pound earned will go directly to Vivi and her operation fund. 

This is definately going to be the toughest challenge I have ever taken on, but its for a fantastic cause, and I urge you to please donate to this page, anything will help toward this operation whether it be a small amount or a larger amount, it would mean the world to me and vivi to achieve this target!!

Here is a link to her website www.vivisventure.com

Thankyou so much for taking the time to read this!
