Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm riding the full length of Britain as a personal challenge (Land's End to John o'Groats is 1200 miles over 12 days) and also to raise money for Diabetes UK as I have seen first hand the physical, emotional and psychological struggle people have to go through each and every day when living with this disease. It's incredibly hard when your body doesn't work like it's supposed to and you need to inject yourself daily just to stay alive, running the risks of severe complications at any time of life. 

Diabetes UK provide help and support to sufferers and their families alike and research treatments and potential cures for this debilitating disease.

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.
