I'm excited to be taking part in this year's Cycle to PAW 2026, an endurance charity bike ride for 30 cyclists of all abilities, covering approximately 330kms to Paris Arbitration Week. Over three days, we'll ride through London, cross to Dieppe, and continue via Beauvais before rolling into Paris together, arriving in time for PAW.

This challenge means a great deal to me.

As a parent, it's easy to see how profoundly a child's future can be shaped by circumstances entirely outside their control. Save the Children's work protect's a child's chance to grow, learn and thrive. Their felxible fund allows Save the Children to respond wherever the need is greatest, acting quickly, decisively and compassionately for children facing crisis, wherever they are.

As a former rider (long, long ago now!), this ride is a return to a pre-kids part of myself, long days in the saddle, a shared sense of purpose, pushing through miles knowing that every turn of the pedals helps support children who deserve safety, opportunity, and hope.

The 2026 Cycle to PAW aims to raise £30,000 for Save the Children’s flexible fund. Every donation, no matter the size, genuinely makes a difference. Thank you for supporting this journey and, more importantly, the children whose lives can be changed through this work.
