big run for bax

*original target of £250 was achieved on day 1 so increasing to £575, or ~1000AUD - thank you so much everyone who has donated and/or shared*

*second target of £575 also achieved on day 1! upping to £1150, or ~2000AUD - it's a big stretch but fingers crossed we might be able to get there! thank you so much again to everyone who has donated and shared*

hi, i'm matt. you may know me as a brewer at momo kombucha, or as a dj clunking my way through mixes on brixton radio, or just as a guy standing in front of you now, asking for your hard earned money. either way -

 

my pal bax has recently has recently been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and multiple tumours have spread to his brain. he is in need of a (very expensive) medical flight in order to be back home in australia fighting this alongside his family.

 

(here is his main fundraising page with more info, some of which i copied here - if you would like to donate directly please do https://www.gofundme.com/f/5jnuyk-help-baxter-get-home?utm_campaign=p_cp+share-sheet&utm_medium=copy_link_all&utm_source=customer. this is also where the proceeds from this fundraiser will be donated after the run)

 

i'm running the battersea park half marathon on Sat 14th May to raise some cash for the flight. i have no idea how it will go - the race is very soon, i haven't trained for it and my running shoes are broken, so the signs are all pointing to 'disaster' - but if it can raise any money at all for bax it is more than worth it.

 

baxter is an amazing artist, a great dj, an incredible tattoo artist and he can make a mean sandwich; he is the kind of person who brings joy into the lives of all around him.

 

any support at all is gratefully received - if you are in a position to donate either here or to the main gofundme, thank you; equally, if you can share this or the main page that would be very much appreciated.

 

all my love,

 

matt
