Story

In February 2006 I was diagnosed with Skin Cancer.  I was one of the lucky ones, and after surgery and 5 years of checks I've finally been given the all clear.

Not everyone is as lucky as me, and by sponsoring me to do one of the most challenging events of my life so far, you can help raise money to fund research into cancer, and help others overcome their biggest challenge.

On 6 August 2011 I will be at Peterlee airfield to complete my first ever Static Line Parachute Jump.  All support will be appreciated!

So please dig deep and donate now - and if I don't survive the jump, no flowers at the funeral please just make an extra donation!!

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.
