Lands End to John O'Groats, Why not?! · 26 July 2009

The Brain and Spine Foundation transforms the daily reality of people affected by any neurological condition, anywhere in the UK, through frontline professional services, innovative social research, and bold campaigning for change.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

This summer, we've decided to cycle from the deepest depths of Cornwall, to the furthest reaches of mainland Scotland, the famous Lands End to John O'Groats. We're not hoping to break any records, we just want to get there, and try to enjoy it (as much as is possible!) along the way.  We're planning on taking 14 days over it, and we've got our hostels booked so now there's no going back! It's over 1000 miles in total, as we'll be doing it on wiggly roads, rather than big ones. So that's an average of just over 70 miles per day. Phew...

To keep us on our toes (or in our saddles!) we'd like to raise some money for charity. We've chosen the Brain and Spine Foundation, which is the only one in Britain to cover research, patient support and education for a wide range of neurological conditions.

If you'd like a bit more information about the charity, take a look at their website by following the link to the left.

As you can imagine, this ride is likely to be quite challenging at times, so the more money we make, the easier it'll be.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’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’s the most efficient way to donate -we raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.

Thank you very much!
