Story

Save the UK's CharitiesGeneral fundraising has been hit very hard by the COVID-19 pandemic. Thousands of fundraising events have been cancelled and many charities, particularly smaller ones, are struggling to maintain services because of this huge reduction in income.This impacts all sectors of society from children to the elderly as well as the vital work in areas such as palliative care, serious diseases, mental health, housing support, food supplies and countless others that charities support.

Helen was diagnosed with PBC in summer last year. The PBC foundation carry out research and offer support to anyone with the disease. They are very short of funds at the moment. 

Edward and Alexander will be cycling in multiples of 2.6 miles. Helen and Jasmine will be taking the lazier challenge of baking 26 cakes.
