People from all walks of life are struggling with their health or situations in which they find themselves. Although progress is being made in cancer research, funding is insufficient. Cancer has affected my family and sadly, will touch most people in one way or another at some point. The Solan Connor Fawcett Family Trust give massive support to cancer charities and Mark Solan is supporting me and helping organise the trip. My passion is my motorbike. The biking fraternity do a lot for charities and have their own, the British Biker Relief Foundation, who help bikers recuperate after accidents and help families who have lost family members. Lastly, almost two years ago we lost a good man whose chosen charity was the Gurkha Welfare Trust. I'm going to be contributing to this charity in his memory.
