Our personal message:

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

As you are probably aware I have had renal failure for a number of years. However since moving to Dorset a few years ago I have discovered a passion for sailing. On Saturday 19th June I intend to take part in the Round The Island Race. This is one of the largest yacht races in the world with over 1600 boats taking part, and is a race around the Isle Of Wight. I will be sailing on the boat Watanga which will be skippered by my partner Martin, together with my brother Mark, & friends Graham & Greg.

I thought it would be a great idea to incorporate my love of sailing with an opportunity to raise some money for the Dorset Kidney Fund. This is a regional charity which raises monies to help renal patients specifically in Dorset.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Dorset Kidney Fund 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. No amount of money is too small!

If you know of anyone else that may be interested in sponsoring me, please feel free to pass this on.

Thanks once again

Lou
