Hi Friends,

On June 9th, I'm taking part with Roy Streatfield, a cycling friend, in the Beaverbrooks Bike Ride to support Trinity Hospice. I'm cycling the 30 mile route across the Fylde Coast, starting at AKS school in Lytham (formerly King Edward V11 School, where my late brother Hugh was a pupil).

I'm hoping for a fair wind and zero rain, and hoping also that Roy waits for me at the top of the hills. And yes, surprisingly, there ARE some hills in the Fylde!

Trinity Hospice is about living life to the full and living well to the very end, something we all hope for. Even if you can only spare £1, I will be very grateful for your support. Thank you.
