Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

On May 31st 9 of us are setting off to ride the 600 km from Calais to Beaune by midday Friday June 5th - at the age of 49, I promise you that this is no mean feat.

It is in aid of our Wine Trade charity "The Benevolent" which, in a very low profile but very real way makes a huge difference to the lives of numerous people who have worked in the drinks industry and now need help. For more information see www.thebenevolent.org.uk.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: The Wine And Spirit Trades Benevolent Society gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!
