Emma's Brazilian Bike Challenge .. WE'RE OFF

Fundraising for Women V Cancer - Cycle Brazil

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm off on my next biking challenge through Salvador in Brazil on the 26th September. Cycling over 350km in 5 days on a hired bike in humid climate conditions ! The financial and physical challenge of this event is putting me to the test but I know it will be worth it for these incredible charities. Every penny will help them and will motivate me over the hilly and bum bruising 5 days. We have all been affected by Cancer in one way or another so any donations will be greatly appreciated by myself and these amazing charities that are already supporting and helping friends, family and people we all know.

I have paid for my own flights so ALL the funds raised are going directly to the charities.

Breast Cancer Care - Provides expert information, skilled and emotional practical support for over 55k women and men

Jo's Cervical Cancer Trust - The only UK charity dedicated to women affected by cervical cancer & abnormalities. Nearly 3 women die every day with a further 8 being diagnosed daily.

Ovarian Cancer Action - The biggest gynaecological killer of women in the UK. 12 women die every day, the UK having the lowest survival rates of the developed world.
