Story

 

Hello!

Thanks for clicking on this link. I won’t keep you long, promise!

Early July I will be cycling a total of 1000 miles from the bottom of Cornwall to the top of Scotland. The length of the UK! Taking around 12 days I plan to pace myself at 80 miles a day (still not got use to that figure yet!) joined by a fellow coursemate, Ralph!

I am doing this in the aid of a great charity called VSO which stands for Voluntary Services Overseas. Helping people all over the world with; disability, education, health, HIV and AIDS. They do this by setting up local volunteer projects and sending out skilled professionals such as doctors and nurses to help and train the local community. If you want some more info on them here is the site:

Here is a great little video on how your money helps real people:

This is a fantastic opportunity for you guys to help give to charity, and see me sweating my nuts off cycling the length of the country! My target is £2350 which i believe is realistic with the help of family, friends, and the general public in other little fundraisers i have planned. Any amount no matter what will be greatly received by both I and of course VSO.

Cheers for checking this out guys let me know what you think!
