Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I first became aware of Corinne Hutton when I read this blog back in 2014. I have to say that it genuinely touched me and I was totally blown away by it. I'm a man's man, not one for crying (it's a long story), however, I don't mind admitting that Corinne's story reduced me to tears that day.

It's a tough read, however, please take a few minutes to read it and you'll understand why I'm doing this fundraiser.

I told you...! Corinne Hutton, you're a ***shinning star*** and a genuine inspiration...Chapeau.

So...I'm trying to raise 5p per foot of climbing that I have to do whilst cycling the 112 miles of the Fred Whitton Challenge to complete the event.

It's takes place on Sunday 10th May 2015 and the route is ultra challenging, not just because of the relentless steep 8 hill climbs (twice the height of Ben Nevis), but also because of the very steep and technical descents.

I delighted to be doing this to raise funds for "Finding Your Feet". The do the most amazing work with people needing a leg up and help finding their feet in life. They are all about improving the life of those who find themselves facing life changing trauma through illness or injury.

Please have a look at their website and the work that they do:

I appreciate we are all asked to "dig deep" for lots of charities, however, this is a "no-brainer". Please help me, help Finding Your Feet.

Thank you.....Al
