May 2008 Update!

With the 'ticker' above showing exactly 3 months to the start of this years BritBallRun we thought it was about time we gave you all a bit of an update.

Firstly here are a few ways you can help us reach our £10,000 target...

• The Smarties fundraiser is currently in progress and we hope to have a few tubes of change to count very soon! For more details of how you can take part CLICK HERE
• If you, your company or organisation would like to sponsor a part of our car for the duration of this years BritBallRun all you need to do is visit our eBay Store and take a look at the various options :o)
• We are also still looking for items for this years auctions. The auctions will be held through July and early August via our eBay Store, if you are interested in donating an item please send us an email at fundraising@rosemcgill.co.uk detailing the item/items you would like to donate and we'll get back to you as soon as we can :o)

Other Team SMARTies news...

• We have begun to put together our costumes for this years event. We finally settled on SMART but slightly mad Scientists as our theme this year...which will be more comfortable for Natalya than last years ballgown!
• Although Christmas is over 6 months away we hope to order our Christmas cards in the next couple of months. Thanks to donations from members over at DPChallenge we'll have more unique designs available in our eBay store at the start of September.
• Thanks to a friend we are working on our own fundraising event with a Smart twist! Plans are only in the very early stages so we won't announce anything yet, but, once we confirm the details we'll be sure to let you all know more!

To all those who have followed our progress since the start of our fundraising you are probably aware that Natalya isn't in the best of health. Thoughts and prayers around the 12th June would be greatly appreciated as she returns to the hospital for results of some tests which will hopefully allow the Doctors to finally confirm a diagnosis.

That's all from us for now but we'll be sure to keep you all posted on developments in the Team SMARTies 'camp' in the run up to the BritBallRun 2008...

All the best,

Natalya and Andrew
