Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Over the weekend of 24th-26th of July I am attempting to cross England on my mountain bike, cycling 205 miles from the West coast to the East Coast, traversing footpaths and bridleways through the Lake District, Yorkshire Dales and the North Yorkshire Moors.

I am doing all this in loving memory of beautiful Rowan Poole who lost her brave fight with Spinal Muscular Atrophy at just 18months old on the 23 of November 2012. 

 Currently there is no cure, but the SMA Trust is working with scientists to find one, this is a costly process so I am raising as much money as I can to help. 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
