Our friend Jack wanted to ride coast to coast on his handcycle along the Hadrian's Wall Cycle Route. Unfortunately, he passed away before he was able to complete his ambition. We've borrowed Jack's handcycle so that we can complete this challenge for him in May 2019. Starting in Silloth on the west coast, four handcyclists, supported by two non-disabled riders, will complete the 113 mile journey, arriving in Whitley Bay on the east coast two days later.

As part of this memorial ride we're continuing our fundraising effort to raise the money we need for a new box trailer for Experience Community CIC, an organisation that helps disabled people access the countryside. The trailer is essential to transport the equipment we use so that we can help more people benefit from our work across the north of England.

Thanks to generous donations we've already raised £865 of the £4,500 we need to buy our new box trailer, so please dig deep and help us achieve our goal!

Should we manage to raise more than our target we'll put any additional funds towards new mobility equipment for our participants.
