Story

Hi, thank you so much for taking the time to vist our page.

We're back, tired after what turned out to be a 350 mile cycle ride from Paris to Great Horwood. It was a fantastic team effort with a total of 23 people taking part from the cyclists to the support team that kept us going.

Yesterday we cycled into Great Horwood for an emotional homecoming accompanied by many children from the village who joined us at Mursley not only to celebrate the achievement but also to help us remember Toby's life and why we did it.

Our aim was to raise money for the Child Bereavement Charity, in memory of Clare and Simon's son Toby who suddenly, unexpectedly and tragically died last year, aged 10.  A child we will certainly never forget.

The Child Bereavement Charity (CBC), founded in 1994, provides specialised information, support and training to all those affected when a baby dies, or when a child is bereaved. Every day, 11 children in the UK under the age of 15 die as a result of illness or accident. Every year around 20,000 children and young people under 18 experience the death of a parent. The Charity's vision is for all bereaved children and grieving families to have access to relevant support and information from appropriately trained professionals.

This fantastic Charity is providing invaluable and ongoing support to many bereaved families who are suffering as a result of devastating and often sudden, unexpected loss of loved ones and needs your donations in order to carry on their amazing work.

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 and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - we raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.

 

Thank you
