Lands End to John O'Groats Cycle Challenge · 26 July 2010

For 30 years now Honeypot has been providing tailored support for young carers and children aged 5-12 facing difficult circumstances. The children we support benefit from time away from daily responsibilities and stress, giving them the opportunity to relax, have fun and simply be children.

Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On the 26th of July I will set off on a challenge of a lifetime, cycling from Lands End to John O'Groats, on my own and unsupported. In total I will cover 1,000 miles, and aim to achieve 100 each day.

I am doing this to raise money for the Honeypot Charity, an organisation which provides respite and long term support for young carers and very vulnerable children. Honeypot gives children who spend all of their spare time caring for a sick or physically disabled adult or sibling, as well as looking after the household chores the chance to be a child.  These children do not normally ever have time to play, go on an outing, learn to ride a bike or swim,  but they do have the chance to enjoy all these things and more at Honeypot House in the New forest. In addition to an annual holiday Honeypot provides out reach to each child in their home community, with visits from the Honeypot Playbus, Christmas presents and birthday cards. For these children, Honeypot gives them the opportunity to relax and create positive childhood memories they can keep forever.

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 and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please help and donate what you can now.
