    After my huge Photo exhibition (Wheels and Motion 11) at the end of
    November i had managed to raise £2400 purely through people coming
    along to view my pictures and also generous donations and sponsors.

    I had set a target of £3000 so after finally collecting the money pledged
    and a final push, a total of £3050 has been raised.

    The money has been distributed between

    Help for Heroes - £1050.00, this includes sales of wristbands
    The North West Air Ambulance - £1000.00
    Bolton Mountain Rescue Team - £1000.00

    I have so many people interested in my work that i now have a display
    stand at Rivington Top Barn each Sunday and each picture sold includes
    a donation to my chosen three charities.

    Many thanks go to all the people that have supported my fundraising
    activities. I have tried to include a thank you to everyone on my website
    www.SK-Art.co.uk

    Photography has opened up a whole new life for me to which i am privileged
    to be able to include all my family and friends.
    In the biking world, the whole community are so friendly and i have been lucky enough to have met some interesting people.

    For as long as i am able, both me and my family will continue to support our charities and now i find myself sponsoring my son Jamie (by way of pictures) as he is entering the European ModBall Rally this year in his Nissan Skyline which will take him around 6 cities in 6 days, London, Paris, Cannes, Rome, Venice and ending in Geneva.
    I and all my family and friends wish Jamie all the luck in the world on the rally and safe motoring.

    Attached are the pictures from the cheque presentations.

    North West Air Ambulance cheque was presented at the base in Manchester City
    Airport. Pictures are little Aidan and Lydia my niece and nephew who were treated
    to a sit in the pilots seat of the Helicopter, myself with the crew.

    Help for Heroes cheque was presented at the Somme Barracks in Blackburn were the
    4th Battalion The Duke Of Lancasters Regiment are based. The evening was a fundraiser
    for the Army Benevollent Fund that we had been invited to attend.
    The Battalion accepted the cheque on behalf of Help for Heroes.

    Bolton Mountain Rescue Team Cheque was presented at Horwich RMI Club who
    kindly hosted my exhibition. In the picture from left to right are
