Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

In July 2014 I will taking on a huge personal challenge to cycle from Stoke on Trent in Staffordshire to Sicily in Italy for A Child Of Mine.  This is going to be a tough challenge for me, both physically and mentally, but I am doing this to support a fantastic charity and the work they do to support families after a child has died. 

Your support means a lot and every penny makes a big difference, please give what you can it only takes a minute.  You can also text NORO47 and the amount you want to donate to 70070.

EG: NORO47 £5 to 70070.

I have personal reasons for wanting to support this charity and I want to raise as much money as possible for A Child Of Mine.  So if you can help by donating any amount no matter how small, it will be gratefully received and I know will make a big different to the families they support in the future. 

For example £25 will provide a parent with a complimentary therapy of their choice, £50 will provide one playgroup session for bereaved parents with other children, and £100 will provide a small grant to families after a child has died.

My bike and equipment have been kindly sponsored by Regus UK who provide Ready-to-go workspaces across the UK.  (www.regus.co.uk). I have already started training with the new bike and I am cycling over 2 1/2 hours per day to make sure I am ready for my solo ride in July. I will post updates and photos when I can during the ride so you can keep up to date on my progress.

Thank you so much for your support it means a lot!
