Story
Bonjour! Thanks to everyone for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page and sponsoring me - its brilliant to have topped my target!
The cycle ride from London to Paris, starting off from Twickenham on 9 September and ending 234 miles later at the Arc de Triomphe on 11 September was good fun - if a little tiring... I found myself cycling with an incredibly friendly and enthusiastic group of people and we had great support from The Stroke Association and the Tall Stories team.
Each year an estimated 150,000 people in the UK have a stroke and a quarter of a million people are living with long-term disability as a direct result of stroke. The Stroke Association fund research into prevention, treatment and better methods of rehabilitation, and help stroke survivors and their families directly through their community services. The Stroke Association are dependent on the support of individuals like you and me to raise money needed to fund their work. Thank you once again for you sponsorship for this very worthy cause.
If you have not had the chance to sponsor me yet, 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.
