As you may have read on other part of the site I am off to take part in a charity event in Uk to raise funds for Clic the children support group for children with cancer.

I am writing here as when i get back from UK I want to start up a fund of some kind here , so that our children and all the Algarve children can have help, here on the Algarve.

I spoke to my son about it and he said mum it could take millions , my answer was it starts with a penny or in this case a cent.

I need to do a lot of research , and would love the help and advise , support and also the devils advocates out there to guide me ,as I dont know where to start.

I know there are variuos units here , but not enough , if you can help me in this quest or know of someone who is in need of this sort of help please contact me.

If you wish to sponsor me as I abseil off the transporter bridge in Middlesborough then again contact me . ( I must be mad , not so worried about drop , got very bad back and wondering how I am going to climb that many stairs !!! ). It 250 feet !!!

Best wishes
God Bless
WR2 aka Mandy :lol:

Thanks to you three and the others who have PM me. As Sam Sparkle has you can donate direct to Clic Sargent ( www.clicsargent.org.uk )

Cheques to be written out to CLIC SARGENT
The money will be collected and paid to CLIC SARGENT through Georgias trust .

Please send crossed cheques to the following address :
C/o L Fernyhough Georgias fund
The old chapel
The front
Middleton one row
Darlington
DL2 1AS

If you could please PM me an amount then I can keep account of monies sponsored , if you pay direct to Clic Sargent then there is no need .

As it gets closer to the date I realise what a a big personal challenge this is for me , especially to climb 280 feet with dodgy back and hip , think I should have asked people to sponsor me going up !!

Thanks once again , best wishes

WR2 AKA Mandy :D

If you are out soon , contact me for a coffee ( I will buy )

I have just set up website for my fundraising , and due to friends being locked out of house I wasnt concentrating on new site , and promptly forgot my log in details , so am now trying to track down. As soon as I have found tommorow , will give details of how you can pay on line. Such a divy.
Well done Barry .
Have nice evening :lol:
