Story

Thanks for visiting our fundraising page.

Well, this is the FOURTH C2C I will have done, that's 240 miles! Why do I do it? Well for the little girl on the left here. She's my fabulous daughter EMILY, and of course, she just happens to have Down's Syndrome.

Latest News!

Thanls to the Management and Staff of Stiefel Labs SLIGO, Republic of Ireland who donated £258!!

THANKS TO CHARLES WILLBE for a superbly generous donation!

CHRIS PHIL and I completed the ride! we actually rode the 30 miles back to Horsham as well! Madness or what!

Thanks to Chris and Phil getting me hooked on cycling and mostly to YOU dear donor, we've raised OVER £8,000  over the years.. Isn't that something! Along the way, I've had a few laughs, "appeared" on Radio a few times,  got my ugly mug posted in the local newspaper, survived a few slips and trips and supped a few beers at the end point of the ride. Last year - we even managed to have the Countess of Dundee (no less) kindly donate her Castle for a weekend at auction - Birkhill Castle, do a search for it, stunning.

So if you can dig deep in this recessionary time, even if its only a few pounds, Dollars, or a few Billion Zimbabwean dollars then all is welcomed. I assure you it will put a huge smile on Emily's face. It's worth donating just for that.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Down's Syndrome 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.

Very many Thanks

Graeme
