Here we go, an adventure of cycling London to Torquay from October 14 until October 16. All for a good cause, which is Astriid! Astriid is a charity that helps people with long-term conditions find meaningful work. The charity was started by Dave Shutts who himself suffered cancer and believed the value of work exceeded a wage, and that employment provides a routine, a sense of normality and a greater sense of wellbeing. The platform matches talented candidates with prospective employers, providing accessible work opportunities for those who are seeking them.

To show my commitment to this organisation, I personally contributed £1,000 through my charity account so anything above that is a bonus.
