Paz’s Uni Lads is raising money for Promise Dreams
In memory of Paras Shah
Story
Hello from Harps, Wifla, Soot, Hodgey, Warny, Dayo, Dorny, Davy, Rors, Kenno, Pete & Knighty.
On the third anniversary of losing our dear friend Paras, us boys wanted to get together and complete a challenge in his memory, whilst raising some money for a special charity. After much deliberation we decided to challenge ourselves to cycle the 220 miles between his two commemorative benches, from Mill Hill School in London to The Met Pub in Didsbury, over three gruelling days. The main challenge being most of us hadn't picked up a bike since our teenage years prior to beginning training this year!
The fantastic charity we have decided to raise money for is Promise Dreams, not directly linked to Paras, however a cause we are sure he would of approved of. Promise Dreams offered support to a close friend of Wipfler's whilst their baby boy spent time in a hospice, so we have seen first hand the amazing work they do to offer families some joy at an extremely difficult time.
So if you can spare a few quid to back us boys as we do this epic cycle for Paz and Promise Dreams, it would be much appreciated!
Thanks x
