Great Wall of China Cycle · 9 June 2009

BackCare is UK’s national charity for back and neck pain since 1968. Back pain doesn’t kill, it tortures – destroying lives and livelihoods. It accounts for half of all chronic pain and is the leading cause of sickness absence from work. Help us stop back pain from destroying someone’s life today!

Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Had three slipped discs and when I was feeling sorry for myself I reminded myself that there are people who had to wait a lot longer than me to get seen by a specialist/get epidural injections so decided that I would try and raise some money towards a back charity.

Chose cycling, because that's about all I can do at the moment, no running, football, squash, boxing, rock-climbing or abseiling.

And a trip to the Great Wall of China was a no-brainer, just got to buy myself a bike now, tried to borrow the office bike but ........... stop it !!

Anyway I have paid for the trip out of my own money so all of the money raised will go to the Back Care charity - any donations greatfully received

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: National Back Pain Association 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!
