Macmillan Cancer Support improves the lives of people affected by cancer. We provide practical, medical, emotional and financial support and push for better cancer care. One in three of us will get cancer. Two million of us are living with it. We are all affected by cancer. We can all help. We are Macmillan.

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page. Please dig deep and sponsor us online.

In order to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Support (and also to offset the bodily effects of a self-indulgent lifestyle), we cycled from Land's End to John o'Groats by tandem, starting on 23rd May 2008 and finishing on 13th June 2008.

We've chosen Macmillan because of the wonderful support they provided to Jonathan's Dad during his final illness. Macmillan provide financial support to St John's Hospice in Lancaster, who make such a difference to the last days, weeks and months of those with terminal illnesses - the staff at this hospice provided wonderful care and support to Jonathan's Dad, and to our extended family.

We've posted details of our training, and daily updates during the ride to the following website:

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Macmillan Cancer Support 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,

Clare and Jonathan
