My story

 

Henry Butler and Andy Martin will set off on a crusade through some of the world’s greatest wine producing regions in an effort to raise money for Chestnut Tree House Childrens Hospice in West Sussex, and convince the worldwide wine gentry that English wine is their equal.

Sounds like a jolly until you realise that their chosen mode of transport for the 1600Km journey is a tandem bike!

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Chestnut Tree House Children's Hospice will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.

Many thanks for your support.
