Story
This June I am joining Househam Henderson's cycle ride from Winchester to Berlin to raise money for two charities: Teenage Cancer Trust and Kinderhilfe.
In 2017 Househam Henderson celebrates its Silver Jubilee of 25 years in Berlin; we are marking this special occasion with a charity bike ride from our first home in Winchester, 1250km across Europe, to our Berlin office. My journey starts a little sooner than the rest of the team as I will be flying to the UK from Berlin on the 16th June to allow some time to test out a new bike (!) ahead of the Grand Depart on Sunday 18th June.
We are raising money for one UK and one German charity. In the UK we are supporting the Teenage Cancer Trust. The German charity we are supporting is Kinderhilfe. If you would like to sponser me you can:
1. Donate to the Teenage Cancer Trust, simply by clicking on the red Donate button at the top right of this page.

In the box 'Nachricht/Message', please write 'Ride Berlin' so that Kinderhilfe can link the donation to our charity ride.
About the charities:
The Teenage Cancer Trust makes a big difference in allowing teenagers in the UK affected by cancer to grow up and develop in the very difficult circumstances they face particular to their age group. They need expert treatment and support from the moment they hear the word ‘cancer’ which TCT is committed to providing.
Kinderhilfe is a Berlin-based, not for profit association, which supports children, teenagers and young adults with cancer or other life-threatening diseases, also supporting their families. They provide guidance through their information centres, in-house and external practical facilities in Berlin, Potsdam and Frankfurt (Oder).
