This year I’m taking on the Duchenne Dash - a challenging ride from London to Paris - to raise funds to fight Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a devastating genetic condition that affects young boys and leads to progressive muscle degeneration.

Children with Duchenne gradually lose the ability to walk, and over time the disease impacts their heart and lungs. Despite incredible scientific progress, there is still no cure.

That’s why I’ve decided to take part in the Duchenne Dash and raise as much as possible for the charities and researchers working tirelessly to change the future for these children and their families.

The ride itself is no small challenge: hundreds of kilometres across two days, plenty of training, and a fair bit of sore legs along the way. But it’s nothing compared to what families living with Duchenne face every day.

Every donation — large or small — will help fund vital research, support families, and bring us closer to effective treatments and ultimately a cure.

If you’re able to contribute, I’d be incredibly grateful. And if not, sharing this page helps just as much.

Thank you for your support.
