<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p>
<p>As you may well know I am a dedicated Saints FC supporter as well as having a passion for regular cycling, this event has given me a fantastic opportunity to combine both to help 3 chosen charities continue to work to help people less fortunate than ourselves.</p>
<p>I will be setting off with 50 other riders on April 9, Easter Monday, to ride from St Mary's Stadium to Selhurst Park home of Crystal Palace arriving in time for kick off, the total distance to be ridden is 85 miles.</p>
<p>The Saints Foundation was set up in 2010 with a goal to inspire, support & deliver 4 key themes, sports participation, social inclusion, education & health thus making a positive difference to peoples lives locally, regionally & internationally.</p>
<p>The Countess Mountbatten Hopsice supports over 3,000 people each year with life limiting illnesses through South Hampshire through the provision of medical, practical & emotional support, with continued support they can build a stronger more sustsainable future for those who need the support of a specialist service.</p>
<p>Naomi House (Wessex Childrens Hospice Trust) provides support to children & young people with life limiting conditions from across central southern England, this includes respite stays, terminal & bereavement care. With less than 15% of income coming from Government the Trust relies on the generosity of people to continue its work.</p>
<p>All funds raised will be split between these 3 worth while charities, I look forward to your valued support on this event to help me achieve my goal and ultimately aiding the above worth while causes.</p>
