Story

Hello All

No you are not reading this wrong,  I’m off to Paris..... on a push bike!

Oh yes, I will be dusting off my muscles to take part in this mad mad adventure with 12 wonderful Sheffield Haworth colleagues. We will be cycling a total of 240 miles over 3 days, setting off from the Sheffield Haworth offices on Thursday 8th September and arriving in Paris on Saturday 10th.  This will be a huge challenge as we aim to cover over 80 miles each day which will involve many painful hours in the saddle! Parisians have been warned! 

We are taking on this MAD challenge in order to raise money for the SMA Trust, which is a charity that means a great deal to all of us taking part.  SMA is a devastating, genetic disease. It is a leading genetic killer of infants and toddlers. The SMA Trust is the only UK charity dedicated solely to funding research into this debilitating condition. Scientists are making significant progress in finding a cure, for which we need your help.

I am late in putting my fundraising page together so it is even more important that I raise as much as possible in the short time I have left. I am hoping to raise as close to £1000 towards the team’s total in order to help the SMA Trust fund.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Wish me luck!
