Wow, it’s been an absolute whirlwind couple of weeks! I never could have imagined such incredible support – from close family and friends, colleagues, past colleagues, friends of friends I’ve never met, and even people who have donated simply because they read my story.

It has been so incredibly humbling and totally overwhelming. I’m now over a quarter of the way to the total amount needed – and still going strong! I still have news stories set to appear in the press, a BBC radio interview booked, and more emails to media agencies to write. So keep your eyes and ears peeled. Thank you so much for all the social media shares so far – I can’t tell you how much this has helped. Really!!!

If your Facebook timeline is anything like mine and has been completely vomited on by pictures of me… I apologise. 😉

A massive thank you to Debbie Bowles and my wife Jen for organising an amazing fundraising evening. A three-course meal, with 120 tickets selling out in a weekend – incredible! And thank you to everyone who has arranged so many fantastic prizes for the raffle and auction. I’m actually quite gutted that I won’t be able to bid on some of them.

…And it doesn’t stop there! Family in Liverpool have organised their own event for me too. I’m looking forward to that trip – always so much fun.

Here’s to the next seven weeks… again, thank you!
