Help the Hospices - The Arch to Arc bike ride · 14 June 2012 ·

Hospice care eases the physical and emotional pain of death and dying. Letting people focus on living, right until the end. But too many people miss out on this essential care. Hospice UK fights for hospice care for all who need it, for now and forever.

Story

<p>Can't believe I'm 60 this year - May 4th to be precise.</p> <p>I've run marathons, climbed the Three Peaks, Kayaked the Snake River, Skiied an Olympic Downhill (very slowly), trekked to Everest Base Camp. So what can I do to mark entering my 7th decade?</p> <p>I'm not very keen on cycling! So how about the Football League's initiative - Wembley to Paris - 245 miles in 3 days? Surely not!</p> <p>But the chance to prove that I can still rise to new challenges is difficult to resist. Couple that with the opportunity to represent Notts County, the Club I have supported for 45 years through thick, thin and very thin. And all in aid of such a worthy cause.</p> <p>Let's do it!</p> <p>So, from 14th to 17th June 2012, I will be taking part in the Football League Arch to Arc Bike Ride raising money for Help the Hospices. The ride starts at Wembley Stadium and finishes at the Arc de Triomphe - 245 miles over 3 days come rain or shine.</p> <p>Help the Hospices do some amazing work around the country. Have a look at the video www.helpthehospices.org.uk/about-us/</p> <p>My travelling/accommodation costs are being met from elsewhere, so anything you can give will go in full to the Charity.</p> <p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer.
