Matts Lands End to John OGroats

Matthew Ellis is raising money for East Anglia's Children's Hospices
“Matthew Ellis's Fundraising Page”

on 3 March 2008

Donations cannot currently be made to this page
We care for children & young people with life-threatening conditions across Cambs, Essex, Norfolk & Suffolk and support their families. This can be at home, in hospital or at one of three hospices at Milton, The Treehouse and The Nook. We rely on voluntary donations for the majority of our income.

Story

Thank you for visiting my fund-raising page.

As some of you may already know I am intending to cycle (along with a fellow fool) from Lands end to John OGroats in May 2008.  The route at the moment is going to be determined by accommodation and is certainly not the most direct route as we will be taking in the sights (exposure and hills) of Dartmoor National Park, the Peak District, Yorkshire Dales, The Lake District (and maybe a few others).

We will be undertaking this predominantly unsupported and within 12 days covering over 1000 miles. As soon as I confirm the route I will update this site accordingly.

Please feel free to sponsor me as I feel the cause certainly merits the effort and attention. The reasons for doing this is the belief that Childhood is precious and that children deserve a quality of life. East Anglia’s Children’s Hospices offer a range of services to support children and young people with life-threatening and life-limiting conditions.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure, and although it is arguably the most efficient way to sponsor me (East Anglia's Children's Hospices 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) I understand that some may not feel comfortable with the transfer of money electronically and I will certainly be more than happy to accept any sponsorship outside of this site.

 

So please sponsor me now!

Many thanks for your support.
