Story

I am taking part in RideLondon 2019 for Rainbow Trust's Children Charity as part of Team Henry. Henry Haire is an 8 year old boy who's family are currently supported by Rainbow Trust. He was born with a rare condition called Posterior Urethral Valves which has left him with severe kidney and bladder damage. Henry's working kidney is currently functioning at 17% and when this reduces to 15%, which doctors believe is imminent, he will need a transplant. Henry's father Godfrey is preparing to donate his kidney when the time comes. Godfrey said: Nobody expects to be in our situation, including us and as amazing as our friends, family and colleagues have been and will continue to be, there are times as a family we just need that extra bit of support. This is where Rainbow Trust and Nicki stepped in. The boys love Nicki. She is there whenever we need her. She is also a brilliant emotional support when the stresses and strains of our situation gets too much.
