Falling for Madrugada - True Courage


Please join us in supporting an act of true courage from one of our dearest supporters.

Lawrence Warner was born in London in 1938, and as well as a prestigious career with NatWest he has worked tirelessly in his spare time to raise money for a range of charities. At 74 he plans to take on the biggest challenge of his life….

Lawrence has a deep fear of heights – or rather a deep fear of “falling”. He is the kind of man who does not like anything getting the better of him and as if to prove this he is going to jump out of an aeroplane to raise money for Madrugada.

We are truly thankful that Lawrence has chosen to donate the proceeds of his fundraising to Madrugada. He said “One of the problems which can threaten us all at any time is the diagnosis of life-threatening illness. This affects not only the person concerned but also family, friends and the whole community. Madrugada is aware of the need for support and the value of a person living out their time as fully as possible”.

Following his National Service Lawrence had a prestigious career with NatWest including time in the USA until he went into business in 1989 using graphology for personality assessment. Lawrence has since founded the International Graphology Association and published a book on the subject.


Please join us in supporting him in this kind and courageous venture. For more information and to request a sponsorship form please email the Madrugada Office on: admin@madrugada-portugal.com.
