Story

<p>Hi there, thanks for taking the time to pop onto the web page.<br> <br> I'm doing a 227 mile cycle ride from Edinburgh to The Eagle &amp; Child (Bispham Green, Parbold) over 3 days, 18-20 May 2012. As much as I'd like it to be a tag event i.e. I cycle a few miles then hand on to someone else, unfortunately, <span style="text-decoration: underline;">it's not</span>, so I have to get my legs, bum and mind in shape to cycle 97 miles on day one, 70 miles on day two and 60 miles on day three! We are getting some sponsorship for hotel rooms, food, cycle jerseys etc. so all money raised goes straight to charity.<br> <br>I've choosen Cancer Research UK as my charity after having so many family and friends ill or die from this awful disease. Please would you help me to raise some money for this great charity by donating on this page.</p> <p>With your help I'm trying to raise &pound;1000, anything from change in your pockets to a reasonable donation would be welcomed. It would be great to think that we have assisted, even if just a little, to help a family member, friend or someone we dont even know to beat cancer in the future.</p> <p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. I will let you all know how it goes!</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>
