My story

 

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On the 9th September I am beginning a 300 mile cycle ride from London to Paris

5 days / 4 nights Departing on Wednesday from Greenwich Returning Sunday Paris to London

Cycling from London to Paris is one of the great cycle experiences in Europe. Passing through picturesque Kent countryside, we cross the Channel and continue through the small villages and medieval market towns of Northern France, passing the famous battlefields of the Somme and Agincourt. With long days in the saddle and some strenuous hill-climbs, the sight of the Eiffel Tower, our finishing point, will evoke a real sense of achievement. A total of 300 miles!

 

I am doing this in aid of a charity called Julia’s House

Julia's House is Dorset's only hospice dedicated to children with life-limiting conditions. The majority of the children they care for are unlikely to live beyond the age of 18.

Complementing the work of the Julia's House Community Team, which consists of 60 Nurses and Carers who travel the county, the children's hospice provides life-changing support for families both in their own homes and in the hospice itself. In 2008, the charity provided more than 8,300 hours of care for Dorset's children.

Receiving approximately three per cent of their funding from the Government, Julia's House relies on the Dorset community to help raise the remainder of their required income. For 2009, we estimate that it will cost £2.4m to continue to provide their vital services.

So please help me to achieve my target and sponsor me to Help my Charity of Julia's house
