ok guys recently a good friend of mine died and it was caused by a genetic disorder called fanconi anaemia
to raise money in memory of my friend sean i will be putting up my pride and joy nos holmes frame. it still even has caps on the ad mounts :shocked:
the charity i wish to raise money for is called fanconi hope. (i will add a link in a moment)
sean died at age 26 after a going through endless problems as a child. at around 18 he had a bone marrow transplant and things began to look up. but he then ended up with throat cancer and many other faliurs within his body......
i will be donating 100% of the money raised to the charity. i want to try and raise £500 so will do 50 tickets at £10 each. i will also put a link to the just giving page so that you guys can see where the money ends up
pics of the bike and more details will be up soon. also if i have some decent forks or other bits i can put with it to gee you boys up a bit then i'll see what i can do.
post on here if you think you'd be interested in a number or maybe a few.
i'll do the number picking using the bonus ball on the lottery so its all fair
kindest regards lads

you guys are ace.......charlie (southen styler) will be taking pics of the frame tomorrow. i'll put pics up in the evening
like i said the donations for tickets will be all put into the charity.
ive also been raising money by tattoo related art and other avenues. i'm hoping to raise alot. fanconi hope get very little donations and the work they do is amazing. the charity itself is run by parents of children that have had or have fanconi anaemia.
this is my friends just giving page. This is where the money will end up.
