Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Hi the journey is over 969 miles in 14 days, I've met some wonderful people and had a great time. Thanks for your support along the way. But it's not to late to sponsor as I'll be collecting up to August and as you can see we're nearly there.

Riding from John O'Groats to Lands End has always been an ambition and was something I was going to do in 2009 until life's little twists through a spanner in the works. Thats when I found out I had that a swollen Tonsil was far more serious than first thought and it turned out to be Non Hodgkins Lymphoma. The good news was it's cureable, so out came the Tonsils and six months of Chemo and hope fully I'm alright.

So how to celebrate, well you do what you wanted to do and for me it's the End to End challenge but this time for charity. This means Macmillian Cancer Support and St Helena Hospice both are very worthy causes but you choose 50 / 50 or all your donation to one. Just please give generously your friendship and support helped me through my treatmeant and with your donations we will be able to help others in need. Thank you.

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.
