<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>SKY DIVING CAMPAIGN 2011: <span style="color: #000000;">Freefalling - Now surely that's a bit extreme?!</span></strong></span> <strong>Or is it...</strong></p>
<p> </p>
<p>Howdy Folks,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Yes you read right I'm not bananas...I'm actually going to skydive, but it's for a <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>great cause</strong>.</span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="color: #000000;">For those of you who don't know, Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP) only <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>affects one in two million people</strong><span style="color: #000000;"> and currently there isn't a cure. The condition is so severe, that all the muscles in the human body gradually transform into bone, causing joints to permanently freeze and limit body movement.</span></span></span></span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="color: #000000;">Growing up watching my older brother <strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">suffer</span></strong> has been extremely upsetting, which has <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>inspired</strong> <span style="color: #000000;">me to march on and <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>fight the good fight </strong><span style="color: #000000;">for many more people like him. I would love nothing more than to <strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">make a</span> </strong><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>difference</strong> <span style="color: #000000;">to disadvantaged people, so please <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>dig deep</strong> <span style="color: #000000;">within those big hearts you have and sponsor me online.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span></span> Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>And remember, <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>every little helps</strong> <span style="color: #000000;">so your contributions will definitely take fundraising up, up and away.</span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><br /></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="color: #000000;">Thank you for <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>being a hero</strong></span>.</span></span></p>
