Poverty leading to homelessness & hunger is a growing UK problem. I became involved in volunteering for a Northampton based community group 18 months ago while working in the town. Since then I've been blessed to witness support (hot meal, equipment, clothing) given to people in need every Saturday night in the town's centre. Over the last 12 months the group has grown from strength to strength with support from retail giants such as Marks & Spencer, Greggs and Tesco, local business Alderwood LLA, as well as companies, groups, families and individuals who also want to help.

I, being a keen cyclist, will be combining these two interests for a cross country ride out.

THE RIDE
Setting off from Worcester at 7am... on to 'The Gate Hangs High' public house for a "pit stop".... then across to the beautiful town of Towcester to collect more donations... before peddling final leg of the journey to Northampton in time for the usual 6.00pm Saturday service!
