Story

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

As many of you are aware, I have been battling with depression for the past 3 years which has made it very difficult for me to lead my life in the way I had planned.

I am embarking on the biggest challenge of my life, I will be taking part in the 'Cycle China' in September 2010.  This ride will take in the fabulous views of the Beijing Province China covering 450km.

The main part of my challenge is to raise £3,300 in sponsorship for the Women for Women charity.   Funds raised by Women for Women will be spent on ground breaking medical research to improve the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of a range of devastating conditions affecting women and their babies.  This includes brain injury, miscarriage, infertility, cancer and genetic diseases such as cystic fibrosis and muscular distrophy.  My personal challenge is to get myself to a level of fitness that will enable me to complete this ride and along the way lose 6 stone in weight.


Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Institute of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Trust 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!
