Every two hours someone in the UK is paralysed by a spinal cord injury. It can happen to anyone at any time and no one is prepared for how it will change their life. Aspire is a national charity that provides practical help, supporting spinal cord injured people from injury to independence.

Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p><span style="color: #800000;"><span style="color: #009933;">Myself &amp; four other adrenaline fuelled (totally mad!!) teachers from Tower House School are taking part in the Moonriders 2012 100 km charity bike ride from Alexandra Palace to Brighton on 29th June. Do visit the official</span><span style="color: #009933;"> website for further details </span><span style="color: #009933;">- <a href="http://www.moonriders.co.uk">www.<strong>moonriders</strong>.co.uk</a></span></span></p> <p><span style="color: #009933;">I<span style="color: #000000;"> am delighted to be raising funds for Aspire, who help support adults with spinal injuries, for the second time having completed their Cross-Channel swim challenge in 2009 (22miles in 12wks spent lane swimming in Putney Leisure pool - endless lengths twice a week after school).</span></span></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>My target is &pound;300 - any monetary pledge would be gratefully received towards raising funds for Aspire.</p> <p>Wish me luck with nightime training in Richmond Park.</p> <p>Peter</p> <div style="text-align: justify; font-family: Tahoma;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: #0000ff;"><em><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: bold;">This is what it says on the website:</span></em></span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; font-family: Tahoma;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: #0000ff; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: bold;"> </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; font-family: Tahoma;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: #0000ff; font-size: 10pt;">Combining the iconic London to Brighton route with the unique sensation of night cycling; join hundreds of Moonriders in aid of some special charities on a night to remember! A party atmosphere at the start, full hospitality enroute, and a celebtartion at the finish, its open to all types of bike and to riders of all abilities; some will speed through the night and others take a more leisurely pace! All are welcome and all will enjoy.</span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; font-family: Tahoma;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: #0000ff; font-size: 10pt; font-weight: bold;"> </span></div> <div style="text-align: justify; font-family: Tahoma;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Arial; color: #0000ff; font-size: 10pt;">Setting off from Alexandra Palace you'll pedal through eerily quiet London streets, past some of the Capital&rsquo;s best known landmarks before breaking out onto the open country roads of Surrey and Sussex. Pausing en-route for a hot-meal stop, riders aim to complete the 100km course just as the sun rises over Brighton seafront. </span></div>
