My story

 
Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. I'm cycling from John O' Groats to Lands End  (my chosen route is over 950miles!!!) in July as a tribute to my Grandad and to raise money for the hospice which looked after him during the last phase of his illness.  We were all very grateful for their wonderful care and humanity.

I am covering my own expenses for the trip so that every penny I raise in sponsorship will be donated to Myton Hospice.

Thank you for your support.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. If you're a UK tax payer please Gift Aid your donation,this means that the Government will increase your donation, which is better than them spending our money on duck houses!

Well done Matt, that was pretty impressive. Sorry I only just got this in on time. I'll be thinking of you all next Thursday. Donation by Alan Powley 12/09/09
