Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

In November 2008 Bill and I had a wonderful experience in Bhairawa, Nepal, working for the Esther Benjamins Trust with deaf students and young women rescued from Indian circuses. Please watch the short video on this page about our experience The Trust has been rescuing children from circuses and prisons since 1999 and now more than ever needs financial support. To see a short video of their work go to http://youtube.com/watch?v=7KS6f2z0aH8

My children,Ella and Graham and I, acompanied by several family friends are running the BUPA 10,000 to help EBTrust to raise funds during this very challenging year.

We shall be dressed as sad clowns to highlight the work of the Trust and convey the message that for children life in a circus, deprived of education, family and other basic rights is no joke. 

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Esther Benjamins Trust gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor us now!
