Given by 35 generous donors in 15 days

I am shaving my dreads and running a half-marathon on the 19th of January to raise some funds for a charity close to home.

Bay of Plenty

I will be shaving my dreads and running a half-marathon on the 19th of January in Mount Maunganui. This will be my first physical accomplishment after knee surgery 13 months ago and I would stoked to get any amount of funds together for a worthy cause. I suffered a traumatic brain injury 8 years ago after a skateboard accident and the Westpac Rescue Helicopter played a large part in saving my life. This is just one example of the amazing work they do day to day so get behind me and a great cause :)
