Story

Its that time of year again...

As if Paris wasn't enough, this year im putting myself through an extra 200 miles and 2 days of cycling all in the name of charity.

The muscle cramps, painkillers, sunburn, chafing, and early mornings are all distant memory, soon to be re-lived in just 4 weeks time. On the 18th March at 7AM i will once again be stood on Parkinson steps wondering why i make such ambitious decisions. But the reason behind all of this is to raise money for a very worthwhile cause- this year the charity is Sense- a charity that supports deafblind people.

Sense is a charity which raises money to help and support deafblind people throughout the country. They provide community centres, one-one support and short breaks for young people. Please take a look at their website, and see how fundraising helps so many people;

Along with 50 others i will be cycling from Leeds University across to Hull to catch an overnight ferry (luxury!) before making our way across Europe to arrive at the Brandbenburg gate in Berlin after 8 days of cycling and camping. Once arriving i will be donning my Lederhosen and feasting on bratwurst, schnitzel and beer.

All donations go straight to the charity, so please give as much or as little as you can- £1 is better than nothing.

A big thanks to everyone for their support x
