Story

Hello Everyone,

We are Hollys boys....Harry Young, James Hart, Jimmy Sewell, Jason Spearing Lee Laws


Thank you for having the time to visit our page. Please read on why us boys are taking part in this Charity bike ride in Cuba in April 2020.

In May 2019, Holly a sister, niece, and close friend was only 29 at the time when diagnosed with Breast cancer.
This came as a massive shock to all of us and was a devastating time.

Holly found a lump in her breast in May, where she went to her local GP and was referred to St Margaret's Hospital in Epping under Ashraf Patel.

At her 1st visit Holly underwent an ultrasound and a biopsy. A week later we got the news that it was breast cancer and had spread to the lymph nodes.

In July 2019 a week after Hollys 30th Birthday, she started her treatment, which was 12 weeks of once a week chemo then on to 3 rounds of chemo every three weeks. The chemotherapy will be finishing just before Christmas. Holly will then go onto have surgery and maybe radiotherapy.

By the time we do the ride, Holly should have finished all her treatments, and will be back to starting her life.

Holly has been so strong through all of this and her consultant, Ashraf Patel and his team have been fantastic with her, and a great help not only to Holly but also her close family.

So us the boys wanted to do something to give back to them all, and what a great way to do this. Cycling through Cuba, we will be cycling around 80KM per day. I'm sure there will be a few sore bums after the 1st day, but what a great way to give back to the Princess Alexander trust for breast cancer.

So now, please if you can make a donation towards our event we would be grateful from a £1 to much more, all is welcome and thanked. It will all go towards this great charity.
