Story

🚴 Charlie & June Cycle Across France!

In Support of Adults with Learning Disabilities

Goal: £700 for OFLAC’s Food Foundation Course

Charlie and June are cycling 237 km across France to raise £700 for OFLAC’s Food Foundation course. This course supports adults with learning disabilities, empowering them with food safety skills and life opportunities.

As they cycle from Paris to Dieppe, they’ll be sharing blogs, and pictures of their journey — so you can follow along every pedal of the way! 🚴‍♂️🚴‍♀️

Please follow their journey updates on https://wrinklyonabike.wordpress.com/

NB - All monies raised goes to OFLAC, any surplus over our goal will go towards future training initiatives.

💙 Why It Matters

OFLAC is a non-profit helping adults with learning disabilities thrive. The Food Foundation course teaches essential kitchen skills, safety, and food safety — a stepping stone toward employment and independence.
