Story

I got to know Keira when we worked together behind the bar at the summer beer festival at the Bell Inn.  When I found out what a huge Sheffield Wednesday fan she was I knew I had to get a bottle of The Wednesday for her.  

On Saturday 13th July I'm going to collect a bottle of this lovely beer from Hillsborough Stadium, and I'm going to cycle back to Castle Hedingham with it - just in time for this year's festival.  I wish she could be there to try it with us.

It is about 190 miles and I'm going to take 5 days over it, taking the opportunity to visit a few pubs and breweries on the way, but I'll be back at the bell at 5:30 on the 17th July.

If you would like to sponsor me, I'd be really grateful.  All money raised will go to St Helena who provided such valued support to Keira and her family and whose work has touched so many of us over the years.
