Cathy Bayly is raising money for Regain - The Trust For Sports Tetraplegics
Donations cannot currently be made to this page

Regain - Bike Vietnam to Cambodia · 27 November 2009 to 6 December 2009 ·

Regain is the only charitable organisation dedicated solely to improving the independence of all British men & women who have become tetraplegic as a result of a sporting or leisure accident. A tetraplegic is unable to walk and has limited reach & dexterity because use of the arms is severely impaired.

Story

Somehow I have found myself agreeing to do a 450 kilometre charity bike ride in November 2009.   The charity is Regain, which raises money to support people who have become tetraplegic as a result of a sporting accident.  The ride starts in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam and ends at the temple of Angkor Watt,Cambodia, five days later.

Although this is nine months away, as you can imagine, this will be quite a challenge for me.   The formal training programme kicks off in June but I have started both my training and fundraising now to re-inforce my commitment and ensure that I don't wimp out!

I have committed to raise £3,500 for the charity.  I will be paying the £1,500 cost of the event myself, so that all the money I raise through sponsorship will go directly to the charity.   I will be delighted if you would like to sponsor me and any donation you would like to make will be gratefully received.

Best Regards

Cathy
