Some of my Jessops Construction colleagues and I are cycling the Coast to Coast on 16 August 2016 to raise some much needed funds for charity.

I have decided to raise funds for a charity close to my heart - a charity which has supported our family greatly. When our son, George, was born in 2000, my wife Jen and I knew he was special. In 2004, when George reached school age we made the decision to send him to Eresby School... We have never looked back.

Eresby School is a small special school based in Spilsby , in the heart of rural Lincolnshire. The school caters for pupils with additional needs ranging from sever learning difficulties, profound and multiple learning difficulties, moderate learning difficulties and Autism.

The school fund is a registered charity (No 1100543) Funds raised for the school will enhance the educational opportunities and facilities for the pupils of the school. In recent years, this has included the provision of a cycle track, sensory garden project and annual pantomime visits.

It is the larger charities that are often recipients of much needed funds where their smaller counterparts are often left wanting. I do hope you could support this charity and thank you in advance for your support - it means a great deal to our family.
