Other Fund-Raisers

All of you

All of you who have donated to the cause – thank you so much!  There has been an incredible rise in donations at the 7th October approaches and I am really grateful.

Phil Young & Lynsey Ralph

A special thank you to Phil Young & Lynsey Ralph who have totally unexpectedly helped me out and for this I owe them a massive thank you. Phil is running in the GNR dressed as Scooby Doo – whilst carrying buckets (fool) and two weeks later he is doing the coast to coast bike ride to raise funds for cancer research. Phil is donating a large proportion of the money raised towards my aunt’s treatment. Lynsey has helped Phil out massively by arranging raffles, fund raising at work and publicity. The raffle is the best thing she did though because I won one of the prizes. In fact I won two but wasn’t allowed the 2^nd one. Bastards. Anyway what I am trying to say is a massive thank you to them both.

David & John Gilbey

David is Brianne’s youngest son and will be undertaking the impossible task of a day of silence at his school on Tuesday 3rd October.  So far he has raised £270 and I know his classmates are raising money too.  I for one know this will be the hardest thing David has ever done in his life and wish I could witness the event in person. I would advise David uses gaffer tape on his mouth to help and if he manages to keep quiet I shall add 50 quid to his sponsorship. That money is safe ;o)

Update - David has completed the silence along with a load of his class mates. He raised nearly twice as much as originally estimated £520!! Excellent, good work. I don't know too much about exactly what happened but I gather he had some signs to help him along the way and allegedly didn't utter a word. hmmm. I don't believe he kept his mouth shut all day as this is impossible for him but I do know that I owe another 50 quid to the fund. Well done David :0)

Wymondham Catholic Church's Congregation

Thank you to my uncle, Anthony von Roretz, who came to my aunt’s church at the end of September and took portraits of some of the congregation - all proceeds from the day went direct to Brianne’s appeal and he raised £268.49 from this.  Following this event, the congregation have donated further money to the appeal and this has raised £1060 in total.  Thank you all so much.
