My story

Hello, thanks for visiting our fundraising page.

We completed The Little Bike trip on April 8 2009

We started cycled from John O' Groats to Land's End in August 2008, we completed half  of the distance in August and then completed the second leg in April 2009, in total we cycled 1100miles, all by bike. 

By doing the ride we hope to raise money for St Peter's Hospice.  In 2007 my Uncle Keith stayed at St Peter's after being diagnosed with a condition called Amyloidosis, a rare disease that affects your bone marrow. Keith very sadly lost the battle against his illness and we all miss him so much.

St Peter's Hospice is an amazing place, with calm, friendly people, who give you great care and support, both as a patient and as a relative, when facing the most difficult of times. St Peter's is funded entirely by donations and receives no financial support from the government, despite providing a crucial service to many families.

Keith loved motorbikes and I remember going for my first ride on the back of his bike as a kid. Whilst we may not have motor power on this ride, we do have pedal power!  I think that Keith would approve very much of our bike trip and I hope we can raise lots of money for St Peter's on the way.

Visit our website: www.littlebiketrip.co.uk to find out more, to read our blog and see our photos during the trip!

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: St Peter's Hospice 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.

Thanks for your support!
Liz  & Chris

My charity

St Peter's Hospice

St Peter's Hospice

Charity Registration No. 269177

St Peter's Hospice is Bristol's only adult hospice caring for local people with incurable illnesses. Our commitment is to improve the quality of life of patients while extending care and support to their families and loved ones. Last year we cared for over 2,000 patients and supported over 6,000 family members, including children. 85% of this care was provided in patients homes. All of our care is provided free of charge - the NHS contributes just 25% of our annual running costs. For the rest we are totally reliant on the generosity of the public who support us through many different ways.
