Story

My mum and I are taking on this huge challenge to raise money for breast, cervical and ovarian cancer (WomenVCancer). My mum is a breast cancer survivor so this is a charity which is very close to home. My mum, Sonya, is now 7 years clear of cancer! We are cycling 450km over 5 days. That is around 90km a day!

This will be a tough challenge as getting fit enough will take a lot of time and effort. We will be taking part in cycle challenges up until September to prepare for this event. This event is something that I have wanted to do for years and so we are proud to finally be taking part.

I was 11 when my mum was diagnosed with Breast Cancer and I was lucky to be able to celebrate my 12th birthday with her as she was in her last month of treatment. For the price of a beer, a portion of chips or a burger (just 2-5 pounds) you could contribute to saving a life!

My mums company, Eagle Education and Training LTD, is very kindly covering our costs for this trip so every penny you donate goes straight to charity!

Thank you so much for taking the time to donate and making this dream of mine happen. I am so pleased to be raising money for a great cause whilst ticking off part of my bucket list! All donations are much appreciated!
