If I’m going to put myself through IMUK, I may as well do it for a good cause and let somebody benefit from it.

To be honest, there are so many charities and good causes about that it becomes almost too hard to choose one. This is the problem I had so in the end I’ve chosen two.

The first is The Christie. I doubt this one needs much introduction, but just in case, here’s a link;

They obviously have a large amount of fundraisers, but they also need a large amount of funds, so hopefully my little bit will help.

The other is a children’s charity called Wipe Your Tears. Again, here’s a link;

As it happens, the charity is based in Bolton so it is good to be able to help a charity that is so local to IMUK. The reason I have chosen this particular charity is the Chairman contacted me towards the end of last year about a watch he had been donated and was trying to find a home for it. We had a couple of chats on the phone but in the end, I couldn’t help him so I thought if I cant help with the watch, I’ll help with IMUK and raise some funds for them.

Both appeals have a Just Giving page, links below
