As you may know we tragically lost our daughter, Cassie at the beginning of the year. Cassie had a very tough start in life which led to her and her brother John being adopted by us in 2004. Despite the love and stability of a new family she continued to struggle with issues from her childhood. Devastatingly Cassie took her own life on 6 January 2024 which was her 28th birthday. In her memory, Steve and a group of fellow cycling friends are riding from Frodsham, near Chester, where Cassie was living to our home in York. We are raising funds for the Survivors Trust and Tang Hall Employment charities who do amazing work supporting people facing the issues that impacted both Cassie and John.
