We are a charity that offers people with learning disabilities and autism the chance to experience supportive work placements throughout Cheshire. We want the people that we support to enjoy the experience, feel comfortable and accomplished, and take pride in becoming part of the workforce.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am attempting the very first cycling version of Sean Conways 496 running challenge. The challenge runs over a 31 day month. The link below gives you an idea of how the challenge runs.

https://www.seanconway.com/january-496.html

For me it’s a cycling challenge, not running. I will be adding a zero to the numbers. So Day 1 = 10kms, Day 2 = 20kms, Day 3 = 30kms and so on…until the final ride on the 31st day of the month of 310kms. Each ride must be completed during a regular 24hr day, midnight to midnight. By the end of the month the total distance covered will be 4,960kms. 

I’m starting on the 1st May 😬

For those that would like to know a little more about the charity The Bren Project…well, they are a fantastic local Chester charity that offers people with learning disabilities life changing, personal work experience opportunities. 

In August 2015, Bren Bikes set up an in-house training programme where their beneficiaries are supported on an intensive basis by Bren Bikes supervisors during an 8 week placement. Their beneficiaries are involved in every element of the Bren Bikes business. They develop a wide range of employability skills, whilst improving their confidence and self-esteem.

Being a small charity your donations have the biggest possible impact. No expensive PR campaigns, change Gurus or fundraising execs just a small team of really dedicated people working really hard, delivering some very real results. 

What I am attempting to do is not simply a regular sporting challenge, this is so much more, a real hard undertaking, harder than anything I’ve taken on before. There are no rest days, just relentless increasing distances day after day over a 4 week period. If you are able to sponsor me it would be very much appreciated. Every donation will give me a reason to fight on to the end - and support an amazing charity in the process! 

Anything you can give would be BRILLIANT!
