Story

On April 8th it will be 6 years since my beautiful daughter Taryn passed away. To mark the occasion I have decided to set my self a challenge to hopefully raise funds for 2 Wish Upon A Star who have supported us from that day in 2015 and continue to do so up to the present day.

Starting on St David’s Day (As 2 Wish is a All Wales Charity it seems a good day to start) I am going to aim to ride 865 miles which is the equivalent road distance between Lands End and John o’Groats before Taryns anniversary on April 8th. This will mostly be done on my indoor bike although weather and covid restrictions permitting I will aim to get out on the road on my actual bike to complete some of the miles.

If you would like to sponsor me for this challenge every penny would be greatfully accepted. I will be posting regular updates on social media throughout to keep everyone up to date.

2 Wish Upon A Star provides immediate bereavement support for families, individuals and professionals who have suddenly and traumatically lost a child or young adult aged 25 years and under.

When a family loses a child or young adult the effects are devastating for all who knew and loved them. It is important that support is available if and when required.
It is important families know that they are not alone and that the feelings they are experiencing are often normal.
