I am hoping that you will support me with a Charity Bike Ride in aid of The Tribune Trust.

During my year as High Sheriff my special interest is Early Intervention. In the Humber region we have twice the national average of young people who are not in education, employment or training. They are three times more likely to become involved in crime.

The Tribune Trust is a unique partnership between The High Sheriffs of the East Riding of Yorkshire and Lincolnshire, Humberside Police and Humberside Fire and Rescue Service. A key focus of the Trust's work is to support initiatives involving young people because early intervention is so important in helping them head in the right direction in life.

I am very grateful to our sponsors, Bee Health, R-evolution, Yorkshire Wolds Cookery School, Shepcote, Leafe Consultancy and Blab who are meeting all the costs of the ride. This means that all donations will go directly to the Tribune Trust.
