Sheffield Children's Hospital is one of only 4 specialist Children's hospitals in the UK. Those of us resident in Sheffield and the surrounding areas are very fortunate to have such a specialised and renowned centre in our locality. SCH currently operate out of facilities which are in huge need of an update This is a £40m redevelopment, of which the The Children's Hospital Charity needs to cover £20m. Our aim in doing this is to help towards that target.

A motley collection of us from my work will be cycling 140 miles from Whitehaven to Tynemounth across two days in September 2013.

Any donations will be greatly appreciated.
