Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
What is the challenge?
“The toughest day on a bike there is! Climb 15,000ft over 200 miles whilst chased by the Yorkshire Beast at 12.5mph. When he catches you, it’s game over!”
This is a test not for the faint of heart, it will take around 15 hours of pedalling around Yorkshire taking on some of the steepest hills in the country. I will be visiting the Moors in the morning and the Dales in the afternoon. This is a challenge that will require me to train diligently over the next 6 months to stand a chance of completing this ride before the ‘Beast’ catches me and the ride is over.
Who are we raising money for?
I am raising money for a fantastic local charity, Sefton
Women's and Children's Aid (SWACA). They are committed to safeguarding women, young people and children and provide a host of services to support those escaping domestic abuse. Their dedicated team supports women and children who are surviving the impacts of domestic abuse through a combination of one-to-one and group support, counselling and therapy, providing financial support and refuge for those in need.
Most importantly they make a REAL difference to REAL people
in OUR community!
Why £1000?
This sum of money would be and extraordinary amount which
could make a real impact on someone’s life. One thousand pounds would help resettle a family in desperate need of protection, it could pay for a deposit and rent on a flat or house. It could also provide three square meals a day for a family of three for almost five months. A small donation from each of us could be a lifechanging amount for a local family in need of support.
