Story


A bicycle front and centre

Everyone who rode with Andrew valued his consideration for all in the group, whether fast or slow, his respect for others, his wit and gentle sense of humour.

This fundraising ride of 540k is our attempt to honour his memory and to put our collective efforts to a great cause which we all believe in and he championed all his adult life. By calling at or staying overnight at all the YHA hostels in Somerset and Devon we hope to inspire others young and old(er) to get out in the fresh air and countryside and find friendship and adventure.

Today millions of young people live challenging lives Together we can help create unforgettable moments in amazing places, on their first big adventure. With your support we can deliver experiences that have the power to change young people’s futures. Moments where young people believe in themselves for the first time, recognise their talents and develop the ambitions that will take them on a different path through life. For the millions of young people facing poverty, disability, long-term illness and other challenges, these moments are rare.
