Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

So, I love cycling and I love visiting distilleries.  I have also always been impressed with the work that Kayleigh's Wee Stars do and the differences they can make to some families, helping those families to make the time that they have left together so much more rewarding for all.

Combining all of the above, I decided to set myself a challenge of cycling to 41 different Malt Whisky Distilleries in the one day during the Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival on Saturday 5th May and try to raise some much needed funds for KWS.

I have contacted all of the distilleries that I plan to visit and have asked if they could each donate a bottle of their whisky to help with the fundraising. Thus far all replies have been positive and I've had 24 bottles of Malt Whisky and a bottle of Gin, donated.  As a small thank you to folk that have made a donation,, for every £5 donation you make, not only will you be helping a fantastic charity, but you will receive 1 entry into a prize draw to win all of the bottles donated, likely worth between £1000 - £1100. A £20 donation gets you 4 chances to win etc.. ( Note: I can only ship the prize to a UK address ).  Note: If I don't already have your contact details, please tick the box next to my name at the end of the donating process. This will allow only myself to learn your email address and will let me contact you should you win the bottles.   

Winner will be announced on the 12th May

I estimate, that with the time spent on the road and stopping at each Distillery for media updates etc on the way round, the challenge should take me around 10-12 hours, however, the weather could drastically change that..

Please give whatever you can. Your donations can make a difference to a family and bring a little extra joy to the precious time that they have left together.

Thank you very much

Colin
