Support Us

I set a goal of raising £3650 for Cancer Research UK over my 365challenge year. I believed that was achievable, and it certainly has been, as within weeks, I had blown that target out of the water! So fa, personally, I’ve raised over £10000, while overall, our 365ers have raised over £32000 for Cancer Research UK! It’s an amazing total, but I know that we can do so much more.

I’ve been helped in raising this amount by creating the 1%ers Club. I invited people to sponsor me 1% of my original target – £36.50 – that’s 10 pence a day over the year – to support me for my efforts. If you feel that you can donate this amount, you’ll become a member of my exclusive 1%ers Club, and I’ll add your name to the list of members of the club on the 1%ers Club page on this site. Benefits of this club are limited, to be honest, but at the very least, you’ll have that good feeling of knowing that you’ve supported me for all my hard work for Cancer Research UK.

If you don’t fancy the 1%ers Club, of course, you’re free to sponsor me for whatever amount you choose – £1 to £100, and anything in between (or beyond!) – every contribution is very welcome, and very much appreciated. Whatever you can see your way to spare, you’ll have supported my challenges, but, more importantly, you’ll have supported the very important work of Cancer Research UK as they strive to find ways to tackle this terrible disease.

You can sponsor me on-line by clicking through to my Just Giving page using the button below. Just Giving allows you to enter the amount you want to sponsor me for and indicate if you want to allow Gift Aid on the amount – Gift Aid allows Cancer Research UK to claim 28 pence more in tax relief on each pound you commit. Only UK sponsors can take advantage of the Gift Aid benefit for the charity, I’m afraid, but anyone anywhere in the world can sponsor me!
