Story

We are going to cycle the 900+ miles from Lands End (Bottom Left of UK) to John O Groats (Top Right of UK) in under 10 days starting 20th August 2010.  (See Pic)

We are looking to raise as much money as possible for The Wisdom Hospice, who were fantastic during a time when both our families lost loved ones to cancer.  Our bike ride is not just for personal achievement but for that of the memory of those lost, and the continuing support and great help The Wisdom Hospice can give other families in the future.

This is a little statement of what they do;

'The services offered at the Wisdom Hospice are for people with advancing disease primarily, but not exclusively, those with cancer, motor neurone disease, advancing heart disease, chronic respiratory disease and kidney disease. The aim is to provide support both for the patient with the disease and their family. The Hospice provides care for patients and their families throughout the Medway, Sittingbourne and Sheppey areas.

The care provided by the Wisdom Hospice is concerned with the whole person, and offers support, counselling and advice to family members as part of its philosophy of care.'
