Story

Hi Everyone

 

I'm trying to raise money for Little Havens Childrens Hospice by Cycling from London to Paris on a long Weekend Challenge from the 25th to the 28th June 2010.

 

About Little Havens Children Hospice:

 

Little Havens Children's Hospice is based in Thundersley and provides respite breaks, symptom control and end-of-life care for youngsters living with serious conditions and who are not expected to reach adulthood.

It aims to make their journey - and that of the family - as comfortable as possible, creating special memories along the way.

The love and care provided by the Care Team in the homely surroundings at Little Havens is as special and unique as the child. This could not continue without donations as it costs £2.3 million each year to keep the hospice open.

 

About the Bike Ride:

 

Day One:  Early morning start in London through the countryside of the South Downs to Newhaven where we board the Ferry to Dieppe where we stay for the night.  98km

Day Two:  From Dieppe we are quickly in Normandy, cycling through typical French villages onto Gournay en Bray where we stay the night.  80km

Day Three:  From Gournay en Bray, still in Normandy through the rural landscapes to the suburbs of Paris, before a decent to the river Seine.  Finally through the Parisian Boulevards onto the finish line at the Eiffel Tower.  114km 

Day Four:  The long cycle home!  Only Joking we are allowed to get the Euro Tunnel home.

 

Please feel free to pass this page onto anyone else you think may want to support me in raising money for Little Havens .
