For 25 years, we have organised cycle events, mainly in Europe. We have raised a huge £4,378,361 mainly for cancer, heart and other medical research. We pride ourselves that EVERY PENNY that has been raised has been paid to charity - our participants paying the full fees for event entry themselves.

Story

Thank you for visiting this fundraising page.

John tragically died of a brain tumour in January 2009 and we, his friends and colleagues are raising money in his memory for Lymington Sail Ability, a charity set up to enable people with disability to take to the water.  John had many passions, computing, photography, gadgetry of any kind, traditional beers, fine wines, and sailing.  He enjoyed visiting Lymington where his uncle once kept a boat.  He participated in several Round The Island races as well as cross channel cruises so knew the waters well.  It is therefore fitting that he should be remembered in this way.

CAC is merely a vehicle for collecting the funds easily in order to distribute them to Lymington Sail Ability 

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Challenge Adventure Charities gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

Thank you for your support.
