Story

Hi, thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. I am very proud to be cycling the 2018 Prudential RideLondon-Surrey 100 next July for the British Lung Foundation #TeamBreathe

I am cycling in memory of my Mum, Kathie Toohey, who sadly passed away on 2nd May 2017 from lung cancer. 

Somebody dies from lung disease in the UK every 5 mins and approximately 10,000 people in the UK are newly diagnosed with a lung disease every week. If you could spare some cash to support an incredibly worthy cause, I would be very grateful.

Help me to reach my £2000 target.

(Don't forget to Gift Aid it if you're eligible - you won’t pay a penny more but the British Lung Foundation will receive a brilliant 25% extra on your donation!)

About the British Lung Foundation:

The British Lung Foundation have been researching lung conditions for 30 years and it remains at the heart of what they do.
Their aim is always to improve care - and to prevent, treat and cure lung diseases. They're the only UK charity looking after the nation’s lungs. With your support, we’ll make sure that one day everyone breathes clean air with healthy lungs. They have 230+ Breathe Easy support groups throughout the UK (including on the Isle of Man) who provide support to people with lung disease, their families, friends and carers.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. So it's the most efficient way to donate - saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

About the Prudential RideLondon-Surrey 100:

Celebrating the legacy for cycling created by the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, Prudential RideLondon-Surrey 100 starts in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, then follows a 100-mile route on closed roads through the capital and into Surrey’s stunning countryside. With leg-testing climbs and a route made famous by the world’s best cyclists at the London 2012 Olympics, it's a truly spectacular event for all involved. The Prudential RideLondon-Surrey 100 finishes on The Mall in central London, shortly before 150 professional cyclists race in the Prudential RideLondon-Surrey Classic on a similar route.
