Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
After running in this year’s Hull 10K (well 9K after HCC cut it short!) on the 19/05/13 and completing the Yorkshire 3-Peaks on the 19/07/13 (9 Hours, 29 Minutes - it was averaging 33 degrees!) I’m now taking on the 'Trans Pennine Trail' on the 05/09/13 as part of my commitment and that of "Team Cobus" to raise the profile of "FiND" our nominated Cobus Foundation Charity for 2013 and hopefully also raise some welcome funds for this great local charity.
A little bit of info about the Trans Pennine Trail:
The TPT (Trans Pennine Trail) is an exciting route linking the North and Irish seas passing through the pennines alongside rivers and canals and through some of the most historic towns and cities in the North of England.
The Trail from coast-to-coast between Southport and Hornsea is 215 miles long and we will be aiming to complete this over 3-days while camping in lightweight tents and traveling unaided with all of our kit on our bikes or our backs!
A little bit of info about FiND:
FiND operates in various locations in the East Riding, providing valuable respite support for young people, their families, carers and siblings and is designed to meet the needs of young people and adults who have Autism Spectrum Disorder and associated learning disabilities.
Autism is a lifelong disability that affects how a person communicates with and relates to other people and the world around them. By providing meaningful activities via a structured routine, indoors, outdoors and in the community, delivered by a highly trained and experienced team they aim to promote self-esteem and inclusion within the community.
FiND's mission is to support families by putting the needs of the individual at the centre.
