Story

Thank you for visiting my page! 

Over the last two years I have completed cycling challenges to raise money for Behçets UK. On 22 July I will be joined by Danny Leather, Michael Fargher, Adam Brennan and Chris Heneghan cycling 170 miles over 3 days on the 'Way of the Roses' Coast 2 Coast route. 

I was diagnosed with Behcet’s in 2018. Behçet's (pronounced Bet-jets) is a rare, complex condition that can affect any part of the body in multiple of ways. Personally, I am affected with chronic pain and fatigue, as well as other issues, making the challenge more difficult for me to achieve. 

There are 3 National Behcet's Centres of Excellence across the UK with one based in Aintree Hospital, Liverpool. More information can be found about Behcets UK on https://behcetsuk.org/

There is currently no cure for Behçet’s and money raised here will be used in helping fund research amongst other things. 

Any support, however big or small, will be greatly appreciated and gladly received.

Thank you for your support!
