In June, my friend and colleague, Sarah Brigham will be making the trip to Heidleberg in Germany to undertake the pioneering Carbon Iron Therapy needed to treat her rare form of cancer; Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma. The cost of this treatment is an eye-watering £60,000 and Team Brig-Aid have already raised a staggering amount towards this, but we still need more.

To find out more about Sarah's treatment and the main campaign, please visit the central fundraising page below:

As part of the campaign, I wanted to do something that was relevant to Sarah's journey and would be a way of joining her on her challenge. The distance from Derby to Heidleberg is 659 miles and I have decided to cycle the equivalent distance within the seven weeks that Sarah will be receiving her treatment. This will average out at just over 94 miles a week.

I will be recording my distance officially on an app and will update you all on my progress weekly.

It‘s a small challenge In comparison, but one that I hope will contribute towards making a huge difference for Sarah during her treatment journey and all that it entails.

Any donations made to this page will go directly towards Sarah's treatment.

Thanks very much for your support.
