My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my London to Paris Open Challenge 2009 JustGiving page.

I am raising money for The Martlet's Hospice, Hove in memory of my wife Helen's mother, who died of bowel cancer in 2006. The Martlets looked after Helen's mum in her final two weeks of life and provided excellent around the clock care.

From 2nd-6th September I will be cycling from London to Paris, averaging 70-95 miles per day, over 4 days. It will be 300 miles in total for the event. I will be paying for my own costs on the Challenge.

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 sponsor me, dig deep and donate now!!
