Our personal journey with ME began in summer 2024 when, after four years of feeling inexplicably unwell, our daughter was diagnosed with ME.

As parents it is heartbreaking to see her unable to enjoy life in the way she would like. Research into ME is very limited, despite there being over 400,000 people in the UK affected by it and there is no really effective treatment to improve life for sufferers with any certainty. That’s when we came up with the idea of riding from Lands End to John O’Groats. The aim of our challenge is to increase awareness about ME and raise funds to support more research.

We are funding all the expenses for the trip ourselves, so any money you donate will go directly to the ME Association. We would be very grateful if you would help us to support research into this dreadful condition which currently has no known cure.
