Our personal message:

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page.

On 24th June 2008 seven mature members (average age around 60 years) of Meridian CC will commence a 3 week cycle ride from Lands End to John O'Groats, a total of 1038 miles, to raise money for the Minibus Fund at Chipstead Lake residential care home nr Sevenoaks in Kent

At the same time a team of residents at Chipstead, lead and encouraged by Spike, will use their static hand and foot operated cycles to pedal an equivalent distance over a similar period of time.

Our Team consists of Dave Sims, Danny Eagles, John Ropkins, Peter Hayes, Ron Castle, Mike Yeo and Bob Hazel.

So PLEASE dig deep and help us to help those less fortunate residents at Chipstead by sponsoring us online.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Leonard Cheshire Disability 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.

So please sponsor us now!

Many thanks for your support.
