Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Stroke is the second most common cause of death in the western world - after heart disease but BEFORE cancer.

Having seen people being lucky enough to survive a stroke but battling with the consequences, I am riding the distance London-Paris for the Stroke Association.

As you can see from the picture - I am strong-willed and hopefully well prepared for the ride in September.

But I need your help to raise the funds I am targeting - 1300 GBP. It seems a lot but if everyone just gives a little, it is going to be super-easy!

Please help me raise money for those in need of help after stroke, for preventing this disease from becoming no.1 cause of death and help fund research into this.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig into your wallets and donate now.

Thanks ever so much! You'll get updates on my training progress and how the ride went here!

As ever, Yours Henrike
