ABOUT OUR EVENT

On 31st August, Chris and Ben will be joining 20 other riders taking on the 4 day Bournemouth to Paris cycling challenge on behalf of Julia's House.

We've already raised over £1700 towards our cause from our Not Ride London - Ride Dorset cycling event, which saw around 100 cyclists take part in a bike ride we organised for local clubs and cycling groups.  Tackling routes of 50 or 100 miles, our riders donated generously for the opportunity to participate and enjoyed a fantastic cake sale and BBQ at the end.

But with just a week and a bit to go until our own "Grand Depart" to Paris, there's still time for you to sponsor us.  Having been treated to a wonderful tour of the Julia's House Dorset hospice tonight, we are both truly inspired by the amazing work that the hospice offers to life limited and life threatened children and their families.

Of course, we are paying their own way to Paris, so 100% of your donations will go to Julia's House.

ABOUT JULIA'S HOUSE

Julia's House cares for life-limited and life-threatened children in Dorset and South Wiltshire. Unfortunately the majority of these children are not expected to live into adulthood. Julia's House provides families with respite in their own homes and at Julia’s House, Dorset’s Children’sHospice. 

We would urge you to take a look at the Julia's House website to find out more about the wonderful care and support this amazing charity provides to families in Dorset.  www.juliashouse.org 

Sadly Julia's House receives just 5% of its annual funding from
the Government, making it one of the least-supported hospices in the UK and reliant on donations and fundraising to be able to carry on providing the important services it offers to terminally ill children and their families.

Your donations will directly help Julia's House to care for the children and be there for their families.
