Story

On the 7th of July 2012 I will be joining friends to cycle the Coast to Coast route from Whitehaven to Sunderland. The journey will take 3 days and cover over 137 miles.

I have chosen to raise money for 'Greyhound Gap'. 

Greyhound Gap is a small independent charity set up to rescue, rehabilitate and rehome greyhounds and lurchers who find themselves in a ‘put to sleep’ situation in UK pounds.  Funded almost entirely by donations, they rehome around 150 dogs each year.  They can have up to 60 dogs in their care at any one time, in foster homes or in holding kennels awaiting suitable foster homes. Greyhound Gap operates on a national basis so their dogs can be homed in most areas throughout the UK.

They are totally self funded and work extremely hard to raise the necessary monies to continue helping these wonderful hounds.   This is made possible by fantastic support from their network of volunteers and you, the general public.  'Greyhound Gap' say that "Without that generosity we could not do the work we do and we are incredibly grateful for every donation we receive, however small.  Every single penny really does help!"
