Christina's 278km Cycle Through France page

Cellular Solutions 290km Cycle Through France · 8 June 2017
Starting on 7th June 2017, I am taking part in a 278km bike ride (equivalent to 3 back to back London to Brighton’s!) along with 11 other work colleagues, where we’ll be cycling from Poitiers to Bergerac in France. This is to raise money for my chosen charity Macmillan Cancer
Support, along with 9 local hospices and The Rockinghorse Appeal through sponsorship from our company’s clients. For my personal fundraising target I am looking to raise at least £350+ for Macmillan Cancer Support.
Over the past few years the Cellular Solutions Team have raised well over £140,000 – so with your help this event will help take us over the £180,000 mark – with the aim of reaching £250,000 over the next few years from our cycle fundraising, which will see Cellular Solutions Team having cycled the length of France!!
I have chosen to support The Macmillan Cancer Support as they have been a great support for my sister during her battle with Cancer.
Last year, my 28 year old Sister went for a routine scan at Brighton Hospital, but what followed changed our lives dramatically. To all our shock horror, that very scan revealed an advance and fast growing form of cancer in the kidney.
Throughout this tough ordeal, The Macmillan Horizon Center in
Brighton has offered countless measures of support through various means from a gentle aromatherapy massage, to emotional support and counselling. The load was lightened during this very tough time with the help of the volunteers at the Macmillan Horizon Center that give up their time daily to help in any way they can.
At Macmillan, they know how a cancer diagnosis can affect
everything. So they are there to support people and help them take back some control in their life. From help with money worries and advice about work, to someone who’ll listen if they just want to talk.
Fast forward a year on and one kidney down, she is fighting fit!
I want to stand with The Macmillan Cancer Support to help
them support hundreds more like my sister.
Cellular Solutions will also match like for like any funds we raise up to £5,000. Our overall total fundraising target for this event is £32,000. Every donation will help towards this figure that will make a significant difference to those less fortunate than ourselves. Every penny donated goes to charity and not towards the costs of the event thanks to sponsorship of the event by one of our network partners.
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.
Every donation makes a real difference to Macmillan Cancer Support and it would mean an awful lot to me if you would be so kind to help further their cause. Thank you!!
