Donations cannot currently be made to this page

Land's End to John O'Groats · 13 May 2013

The Lake District Calvert Trust provides residential outdoor activity courses for people of all ages with physical, sensory, learning, behavioural and/or mental disabilities. Its mission is to challenge disability through outdoor adventure. Pioneering equipment adaptations, and intensive, instructor-led activity programmes (that include climbing, abseiling, canoeing, sailing, horse/trap driving, archery, orienteering and paragliding), provide an environment whose aims are to teach, challenge, motivate, engender confidence in ability, promote independence, and foster integration. All instructors are highly trained and specialist qualified, and the facilities are specially adapted and fully accessible to all. The Lake District Calvert Trust provides a unique and life-changing experience for those with disabilities, who are encouraged to believe that it’s what you CAN do that counts.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

The Calvert Trust is there to help people with disabilities enjoy the outdoors. As most of you will know, my nephew Dan broke his back in a rugby accident in the autumn, so suddenly this became very personal for me. So I'm really keen to support the Calvert Trust help people like Dan continue to get the kind of pleasure out of visiting the Lake District that I've always enjoyed.

Anyone who knows me will hardly be surprised that I'm expecting that cycling from Land's End to John O'Groats (that's 1660.2km or 1031 miles in old money) in 12 days should be a whole lot more fun than going to work over the same period. But would you sponsor me for going to work...?
