Land's End to John O'Groats · 25 July 2012

We’re the only charity fighting to end child abuse in the UK and Channel Islands. That’s why we help children who’ve been abused to rebuild their lives, we protect children at risk, and we find the best ways of preventing child abuse from ever happening.

Boys currently making their way through Plymouth. Support van currently having its second mechanical interlude...this time the gears! Ruth , the driver, needs some sponsorship to make her continue with the journey!

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Cycling from End to End has always been a huge ambition for me and I'm so glad that my son Jack and I are finally going to undertake this challenge together.  I am also very happy that my brother Gary has decided to join us and I look forward to beating him to the finish point every day!

Ruth and Fiona will be providing support along the way and will need as much, if not more, encouragement as we do; as they fight to set up camp in gale force winds and wrestle with the dreaded Highland Midge, only to have the pleasure of washing sweaty lycra at the end of the day!

Because this is such a huge challenge,  We have decided to raise money for the NSPCC which is a charity close to our hearts.  They do amazing work for all children at risk and their goal is to end cruelty to children in the UK.

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 and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
