Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
On 27 October, I'll be setting off from my home in Banstead to cycle to Amsterdam and back, covering nearly 300 miles by bike via Harwich and the Hook of Holland over four days.
This challenge is completely self-funded, meaning every penny donated will go directly to the MS Society.
Why I'm Doing This
Nearly ten years ago we lost my mum-in-law, Joan, following complications arising from Multiple Sclerosis. MS shaped much of Joan's life, but she faced its challenges with remarkable strength and determination.
In 2015, I lost my own mum, Corinne. While Mum didn't have MS herself, the condition was also part of her family's story. Her mum, my gran Doreen, lived with MS for much of her adult life, meaning both Kate and I have seen first-hand the impact the condition can have across generations.
With the tenth anniversary of losing Joan approaching, and having recently marked ten years since I lost my mum, I wanted to take on a challenge that would honour their memory while raising money for a cause that has touched both sides of our family for generations.
If you're able to support the challenge with a donation, no matter how large or small, I'd be incredibly grateful.
Thank you for helping me honour their memory and support the fight against MS.
