Wow, it’s been an absolute whirlwind couple of weeks! I would never have imagined such support, from close family and friends, colleagues, past colleagues, friends of friends I’ve never met, to people who have simply donated 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 to appear in the press, a BBC radio interview booked and more emails to media agencies to write. So keep you 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 vomited all over by pictures of me. I apologise. π
Also a massive thank you to Debbie Bowles and my wife Jen for organising an amazing fundraising evening for me. A three course meal, with 120 tickets selling out in a weekend. Incredible! And thank you to everyone who has organised so many fantastic prizes to raffle off and auction too. I’m actually quite gutted that I’m going to be unable to bid for some. …and it doesn’t stop there. Family in Liverpool have organised their own for me too. I’m looking forward to that trip, always so much fun.
Here’s to the next 7 weeks. …again thank you!
