My story

 

Thanks for visiting our fundraising page.

The South Downs Way runs from Winchester to Eastbourne, its 160Km long with about 4150m of ascent we cycled it over two days, the 20th and 21st June. It took a total of 17 hours to complete, we got through three packets of jelly babies, umpteen packets of chocolait biscuits and gallons of water. We were very glad of padded pants and gloves as the bridleway is rocky as well as hilly in many places, it’s also a wonderfully beautiful. We’d like to say a huge thank you to everyone who has helped us with training and especially Mel who drove our support car and of course everyone who has donated in support of our efforts, this page will stay open for another month so please keep giving.

ATD Fourth World is a charity supporting families living in poverty in the UK. Their aim is to work alongside families and support them with the challenges they face whether it is helping to fill out benefit forms, supporting families through court cases or just celebrating big events like birthdays and weddings together. They run a number of excellent family support projects like the Fulham Doorstep Library and Family Learning Project and they also campaign on issues affecting families in poverty. Enabling families to be heard by policy makers and professional training bodies whose decisions often have huge impacts on the families lives. Its a great organisation, run almost entirely by volunteers and really needs the money! You can find out more about them at atd@atd-uk.org
