My Story

In September, I find there are two types of people. Those who know when my birthday is and those who don't. For those that do, I am very grateful for your silence as usual. However if you do want send a wish, please do it in the form of donating a few quid to the International Tree Foundation.

For those that don't, I don't celebrate my birthday so please just carry on as usual becasue it is just another day that will pass like all other days. However if you do want to send a wish, please do it in the form of donating a few quid to the International Tree Foundation.

If you don't even care about my birthday (I certainly don't), I happen to be taking part in the Oxford Half Marathon on 7th October on behalf of the International Tree Foundation. They have a numebr of projects in Kenya and here in the UK. It goes without saying that trees are quite important to life on the planet and the ITF are looking to help increase awareness of, and support for, the role of community-led forestry and agroforestry in increasing food security, resilience to climate shocks, improving livelihoods and protecting the environment. Not to mention helping with biodiversity (we're not the only animals on the planet that will benfit from more trees after all).
