This thread is a charitable idea I've had to help our very own Rojo raise some funds for a campaign very close to his heart.

Jon (aka Rojo) and his wife are supporting their local school in raising funds for kids defibrillators.

Initially this is a local campaign for the footie team but one they all hope will be rolled out and raise awareness throughout the region and the whole of the UK.

Children's Defibrillators enable many young people, like their own son, to enjoy normal everyday sporting activities in relative safety.

Having myself witnessed a couple of related incidents at youth rugby tournaments I can only applaud and support their efforts.

Jon is going to write a little follow up piece to these posts explaining things in a little more detail and links to the campaign website.

The idea is that we each contribute (or donate) a piece of bike equipment to the for sale thread here

http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=203770

The idea is that these "bike bits" are offered for sale at a reasonable price by the donor and the proceeds, upon sale, go entirely to Jon's campaign (there's a paypal donate button on the LEFT of the web-link)

it doesn't have to be big, clever or expensive but any of those bits that you may have no use for but may raise a bob or two would be welcomed.

....better than just being stuck in the back of the drawer in the man cave heh?

cheers all
And 8-)

and thanks to John and RB for their support
:D
 
Thanks Andrew, very kind of you.

I am raising funds for my son's football team to get a defib, and also one for our kids school. Once we have sorted these we will move on to other schools etc.

My son has a heart problem SVT where his heart races very fast, at the moment it slows itself back down again. This is a worry to us and him, as many know he has spent alot of time in hospital over the last year with this and other things.

He is our website with more info on the fund raising and about heart problem info etc.

The school is doing fund raising etc, so if you can help the football team one that would be great.

Thanks to all for their help.

I will post up some bits to sell over next few days, my daughter has maybe broke her nose at school today , and she is in alot of pain so busy with her.
