Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In 2013 a very close friend (Helen Peacock) lost her 6 year long battle with cancer and I wanted to give something back to the various charities that are doing solid work to not only get to the bottom of this horrific disease but also offer support to those who have been diagnosed, as well as their families.

Unfortunately this disease is affecting more and more people and is no longer an obscure disease you may have heard about but is affecting friends and family and people you actually know.

So, in order to raise money I have decided to take on the massive the challenge of cycling 400km across Cuba in October 2014. This is a 5 day challenge which equates to approximately 50 miles per day. The temperature will be around the 30degree mark, with high humidity!

My training plan has already started - I take part in 2 x double spin classes a week and get out on my bike as often as possible - I am also doing a 100km Night Ride in May (for the same charities) in preparation so I will be ready :-)

Thank you so much for your donation, it means a huge amount to these charities. 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
