Bring it on brothers

We're raising money for Ashgate Hospice who were excellent to Kerry and all of us and continue to do great work with other people who really need their support. Without them the last year would have been impossible.

To raise your hard earned money again (Thanks for all your previous support!) we have upped the stakes.

Our Challenge is to cycle from Chesterfield to Skegness and back in two days - a total of 200 miles. This will happen between the 31st of March 2012 and 1st of April.

We want to secure £10,000 to do our bit to raise the £2.7 million the hospice requires from donations every year. Without the money the families who need help simply won't get it.

Thanks in advance - Tax payers please tick for giftaid!
