John Reeve is walking to the World Cup from the new Wembley stadium, in honour of his son Tim who sadly died in December last year. He is hoping to raise £50,000 in aid of leukaemia research.

This is the e-mail we recieved:

We are contacting a number of newspapers, radio stations and organisations in the hope they will tell their readers, listeners and fan base about the Leukaemia charity walk to the World Cup. John Reeve is walking to the World Cup from the new Wembley stadium, in honour of his son Tim who sadly died in December last year. He is hoping to raise £50,000 in aid of leukaemia research and will be setting out from the new Wembley stadium on May 13th (cup final day) and arriving in Frankfurt for England’s opening game on June 10th

We at http://England06.co.uk have set up an affiliation with the walk and offered to donate 10% of gross sales from our online merchandise store achieved through the following hyper link http://www.england06.co.uk/?ref=justgiving.  as well as honour all incentives and offers that are available. Our store stocks a fantastic range of official England FA merchandise and fun novelty goods, so we felt it was a great way for people to purchase their products for this years World Cup and support a worth while cause.

Donations can be made directly by clicking on the link at the bottom of the home page at http://www.england06.co.uk  or by visiting   http://www.thetimreevecharitabletrust.org.uk,  where there is more information about the walk and a link to the just giving website.

We have already received a great deal of support from the press and radio, but are hoping that people will help inform others through websites, newsletters and forums.
