Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
My partner Lynne's Mum Anne Montgomery lost her brave fight against Crohns ten years ago this November. I'm sure if you knew Anne you will agree her humour, generosity, friendship and kindness have been missed by many over the past decade, therefore as a tribute to this special lady and to raise funds to help other sufferers, in her memory I have decided to do a tandem sky dive on Sunday 26th August 2012 at Nottingham airfield.
Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis are chronic, terrible ,currently incurable conditions which have affected people very close to us both, as my late father Jim Joynes suffered from Colitis. Around 240,000 people in the UK have been diagnosed with these conditions and more are diagnosed each year.Crohn's & Colitis UK require our donations to help provide support to those who suffer and to fund research to finding a much needed cure.
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 admin costs for the charity.
So, if you remember Anne, are affected by these conditions in any way and want to support this great Charity, or you just like the idea of me jumping out of a plane please dig deep and donate now, it really would be appreciated.
Anything you can spare will make the experience more bearable!

Many thanks...... Stuart, Lynne & John
