Dunn chugging?

It appears that the railway industry is not immune from the Chuggers!

This from Pip Dunn of Railway's Illustrated fame.

Fancy sticking this on the Railway Eye to see if the lovely people in the railway industry fancy dipping into their pockets to help a worthy cause.

We already have donations from First GB Railfreight, DB Schenker, Network Rail, Riviera Trains, Electric Traction, The Railway Magazine, but more are welcomed...

As some of you may know our daughter Harriet was born moderately deaf and over the last year, the National Deaf Children's Society has been invaluable to us

On 5th July the NDCS is having its annual Big Walk Forward in London. It's a 10 mile walk taking in all the best sights and landmarks the capital has to offer, and my wife, Vicky, (along with Harriet's grandma and godparents) are taking part. Any money we raise goes directly to the PDDCS (Peterborough and District Deaf Childrens Society) of which Harriet is a proud member and has been so crucial to us and other families over the last year and will continue to be as time goes on.

You can sponsor Vicky and co on this walk. Donating through Justgiving website is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor them: The National Deaf Children's Society gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So I'd like to ask if you would please sponsor them now!

To make a donation, no matter how small, visit www.justgiving.com/vickysd

Many thanks from Harriet, Pip, Vic and all the children from the PDDCS.
