Oliver's fundraiser for Maisie Moo’s Missions

Story

We're back and bigger than before.

I'm Oliver, and last year I shaved my hair to raise money for Maisie Moo's Missions, a cause extremely close to my heart, and within the great community around me who donated we managed to raise over £2,500!

Since then, the charity has gone from strength to strength, raising upwards of £35,000, gaining official charity status (yes, that means we get Gift Aid now) and holding many events, such as quiz nights, musical delights and launch night.

However, anyone who knows me knows that the moment that hair came off my head, I was already thinking about what the next challenge was, and I am excited to announce it's now here- I'm cycling (on an exercise bike) to Albufeira!

Yes, that's 1679 miles (or 2702 kilometres, depending on your persuasion) - but stay with me. Over 14 weeks, each one celebrating a year of Maisie's cherished life, I shall pedal away for around 28km daily in order to accrue the total distance from my home to Albufeira, the place the Almond family and my own were when I saw Maisie for the last time.

This excitement shall start on Tuesday 24th February 2026 and, as long as my legs are still functioning, my final straight shall take place on Monday 1st June, the date we last saw Maisie all of two years ago - it will be an emotional one.

Along the way, I will have plenty of special guests join me for the day, and you can keep your eyes out for who has taken part, as well as check up on me to make sure I'm pulling my weight, on Instagram @cycleformaisie, and for any enquiries please email maisiefundraiser3125@gmail.com or message 07511670526.

All my love and thank you dearly for the support,

Oliver x
