Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On summer solstice this year, I will be cycling 200 miles from the East to the West coast, taking in over 3200 meters of climbing. The aim is to start at Tynemouth at sunrise and "chase the sun" to make it to Prestwick (opposite the Isle of Arran) before sunset. The ride will be largely unsupported, and will be a good 85 miles longer than my longest ride to date...gulp! 

I have chosen to fund raise for Beder as their cause is very close to my heart. Myself and my family have suffered the immeasurable loss of my cousin Paul, age just 23. During a recent bout of depression precipitated by lockdown and other life events, I turned to the Beder cookbook for support through cooking. This helped to bring me back from the brink. Because of this, I would like to give back in a small way, so they can continue to help others.
