GRIM

It's Nicola, one of Helen's cousins here.

Donna (another cousin) and I are planning to run in the GRIM on Sunday 7th December. This is an 8 mile trot through the Surrey countryside, just a few mud baths and cargo nets to negotiate!! See the website http://www.grimchallenge.co.uk/.

It is "grim" but nothing compared to what little Leo has endured over the last few months.

We would like to do this to kick start a "Leo Fund", raising money that can be used to send Leo on a trip of a lifetime to Euro Disney to signify the end of his treatment, and / or, if the fund gets big enough, to be saved as a contingency for any future treatment that may be required, and to be given to CLIC Sargent at a time when the fund may no longer be required so as other children and families can benefit during diagnosis and treatment.

I must stress this is not being set up as a charity as you cannot set up a charity for an individual, this is a way of raising money through financial gifts.

It would be great if others could join us and run as "Team Leo" all raising money. I am happy to organise, just drop me an email to nkdale@hotmail.com.

If you don't fancy running with us, perhaps you could consider sponsoring us so that we can get Team Leo's fund well and truly underway.

Nicola
