| Imagine cycling 500 miles over seven days from Blackpool Tower to the Eiffel
Tower!!. In August, that's exactly what I will be doing to raise funds to
support kidney research in Wales. As I'm not a regular cyclist and my bike
is not state of the art, it's going to be a hard challenge. All the funds
raised will directly support kidney research throughout the UK and grants to
individual kidney patients. The research helps not only those on dialysis
but also those who have received a successful transplant.
To take part in this event I am trying to raise 1,500 in sponsorship and was
hoping that you could help by sponsoring me, any sort of donation would be
brilliant. I have made it clear to the charity that my donations will NOT be
used for any form of animal testing. To make it easier to donate I have
created a secure site where you can donate online, the address is
http://www.justgiving.com/MartinCarter
If you visit this page, you can help in a quick and easy way. Don't be
worried by the lack of funds in this at the moment, I have only set this up
and will be updating it on a regular basis once I get going. If you know
anyone else who would like to help, I would greatly appreciate it if you
could pass this address onto them.
I know that you must be spectical because of way that I am making this
request but I can assure you this is genuine. If you would like to have a
chat before making a donation, please feel free to send me an email at
mart.carter@btopenworld.com, I will answer all emails. If you are kind
enough to help, I will keep you updated with how it's going, weekly updates
and pics of the event once I get back. Please, Please, Please can you find
it in your heart to donate. Any sort of donation, no matter how small will
be a great help
Thanks a lot and I hope to speak to you soon
Yours Gratefully
Martin Carter
