Cycling on a ride to raise awareness of the Charity Bishops Forum may seem a little odd when I am raising funds for Spectrum, but I feel the opportunity to be involved in this event is a privilege and I am sure there are associates of Spectrum who have seen the opportunities provided by BF Adventure, who understand participation and encouragement are steps to inclusion of a diverse and characterful society.

"So much of what we take for granted is of huge benefit to people with autistic spectrum disorders & families but is not always easy for them to access or for us to provide. Help us to put that right. From sensory equipment to footballs, from days out to short holidays, from gardening tools to recreational activities, from family support to sibling groups – there are so many items and activities for which additional funding is needed. Your kind donations can help ensure that all of the above can continue to be available to those who need them."

It may not be lands end to the beautiful John O groats but your contribution, no matter how small, will make all the difference, in my Coast to Coast Challenge!
