Thanks for taking the time to visit my just giving page.

I am going to ruin my bum again for a cycling challenge for a fantastic cause. I will be cycling 100 miles in around 6 hours for Leukaemia  and lymphoma research. They are nasty diseases that are underfunded in terms of research,  mainly due to the poor life expectancy.

Below is a little poem I wrote about my wonderful father the day he died. I haven't shared this until now but I hope it will spur people on to donate. 

My Dad

A special man indeed, with no love for material things.

He was our hero and he now really does have wings.

A loyal, friendly face for all to see.

Everyone who met him felt as special as me.

A healer of the sick and a splendid volunteer.

A shoulder to cry on or a positive word in your ear.  

He travelled with his vocation both near and a far.

His loyal love with him, like a following star! 

The children came next, six under seven.

Mum and dad never struggled to cope, to them this was heaven.

Last but not least it was I who joined this team.

Over, but not out, this must have been his dream.

Thank you so much again. 

Lots of love David x
