We are Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity. We stop at nothing to help give seriously ill children childhoods that are fuller, funner and longer. Because we believe no childhood should be lost to illness.

Story

<p>Great Ormand Street Hospital saved my daughter Catriona's life when she had severe pneumonia on her first birthday, so to raise money for them I've decided to do something utterly insane - cycle from London to Paris in 24 hours on the 10th July - a mere 265 miles! This will be the hardest thing I've ever tried to do, but I will get there and hopefully within the 24 hrs. Anything you can spare to sponsor me will not only help motivate me for those crack-of-dawn training rides, but more importantly you'll be helping to save the lives of other children like Catriona. To see the other nutters joining me go to <a href="http://www.londonparis24.co.uk">www.londonparis24.co.uk</a></p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p>
