Story

Felix is taking on the challenge to cycle 100 miles in the month of July to support families affected by PANS and PANDAS. PANS/PANDAS is a neuropsychiatric condition which is triggered by a misdirected immune response to a variety of triggers, resulting in a constellation of symptoms.

In February 2023, Felix was diagnosed with PANDAS, a brain inflammation condition brought on by a Strep A infection. The condition changed his life overnight. Felix has made huge steps in his recovery and would like to raise money for the charity which has provided much needed support to the family.

At just 6 years old, and in the company of his daddy, he will cycle around the Shropshire and French countryside as well as the Dorset coast in the hope to reach his target of 100 miles. This is a huge step forward for him, given there were times when his condition made simply leaving the house a real struggle.
