Cycle Cornwall 2012 · 17 June 2012 ·

The Cornwall Down's Syndrome Support Group is run by parents to help families affected by Down's syndrome living in Cornwall. We offer families a chance to meet, socialise and share information, friendship and support. We organise fun days out, trips away and challenging fund raising activities.

Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>Hi, this charity is very close to my heart as, I myself, have a daughter, Charley, who has Downs Syndrome.</p> <p>She is now 11 and through the Cornwall Downs Syndrome Group we have met many families who we can discuss and support one another with our childrens needs. Many of these people are now life long friends!!</p> <p>I have not cycled for nearly 30 years now so as well as helping the group this is also a personal challenge for myself!! The ride is 100 miles and I will do my best to complete it, I do hope to achieve half of it though pending how bad the 'saddle sore' becomes!!!!!</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;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&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p>
