Story

LANDS END TO JOHN O'GROATS SEPTEMBER 2010

Well, we've made it!  Alfie's Team have cycled over 1000 miles in just 13 days, from one end of the UK to the other, and all to raise money for Zoe's Place Baby Hospices.  

Zoe's Place runs the only baby specific hospices in the UK; providing respite, palliative and terminal care for babies and infants aged between 0-5 years.  They receive very little government funding to contribute towards the £2.5 million it costs to keep the three hospices running each year.

We have been inspired to form Alfie's Team and to raise money for Zoe's Place by one little boy.  Alfie was born in July 2008 with a rare genetic disease, which means he needs a lot of special care and his life will be shortened.  Since he was 6 months old, Alfie has visited the Liverpool hospice.  Without the support of this fantastic charity, Alfie's family would not be able to cope.

Your donations will help to ensure that this charity can continue to support Alfie and other families in a similar situation.

Thank you for your donation, 

Alfie's Team
