Story

As you know, I set myself challenges each year often raising money for the Deaf ❤️. This is following on from my Coniston swim with the 5 Deaf Otters and my London marathon.

The London to Paris Challenge  for the BDA in their 125th year will  raise funds for the following project "Deaf Roots & Pride" after its successful pilot in Northern Ireland.

This project will pay for mentors to visit and support deaf children, young people and their families at home. The cost is £70,000 a year for the next 2 years. They have already raised about £40,000 leaving a shortfall of £30,000 a year. Now with so many deaf schools closed and deaf children being educated in mainstream schools and lack of parental understanding about the impact of deafness, the isolation and risk of mental health problems are increasing for them.

The London to Paris bike ride will be an amazing challenge. It will involve 4 days of cycling and covers just under 300 miles (averaging 75 miles a day). Training is now underway after my marathon!
