Story
On the 3rd of September 2017 Jake Applebee, Cyrus Bayandor, Rory McKenna, Aaron Zed Willson, Callum Harrison and Matt Walker will fly to Inverness, ready to cycle from John O Groats to Landsend across 13 days.
We will need to cycle roughly 75 miles per day to finish on 16th September and plan on doing the majority of the trip camping wild/where we can with just a few tents with us. Our provisional route will clock in at a total of 1000.2 miles :).
We have chosen to raise money for Caring in Bristol, and would be grateful for any donation no matter how small.
Caring in Bristol is an effective local charity working to deliver support to homeless and vulnerable people in Bristol 365 days a year. Striving to create a society where everyone has a home, has hope and is a part of their community.
They deliver projects around homelessness that engage an amazing community of volunteers to bring people together to make change happen.
Their projects include:
- The 365 Shelter, providing fifteen rough sleepers with a safe alternative to a night on the street
- Bristol Nightstop, which involves the recruitment of hosts for young and vulnerable people facing homelessness
- Caring at Christmas, where our 800 volunteers help to provide shelter, food and clothing for people in need over the festive period
- And the publication of the Survival Handbook, which contains a raft of useful information about Bristol’s homeless support services.
