Macmillan Awards!!!
I always find it difficult to find the words to say thank you as whatever I say never seems enough...

But it looks like others are now saying thank you too

In december I picked up an award (certificate) from Macmillan for raising over £40,000

Today, our RIB.net justgiving account has won an award as it is in the top 1% for 2014

I don't know who it was, but it looks like we have also been nominated for the Doulas Macmillan award for 2014, this is a very special award which will be announced in May 2015.

Fingers crossed and well done you lot and thank you all!

Well done, could not have gone to a better fella. Good luck for May.
It needed one person to have the idea/inspiration and for the many good folk onn here to support it.

Is the Grand Prix a nurse's uniform where you get to choose the filling?

May raffle off my 7m off.


Well done, an amazing effort.
