Story
From 4th - 8th September, I will be taking part in a cycle event across Wales with 49 other people, whilst raising money for bigmoose, who are a charity with the main goals to:
- help people with their mental health
- prevent suicide
- reduce homelessness
We will be cycling roughly 50 miles a day from North to South Wales, starting at Caernarfon Castle all the way down to Cardiff castle, across the group we are aiming to raise £100k for charity.
I will be doing this alongside 49 other people, including kinging-it (Craig & Aimee) who are two brilliant youtubers who have worked with bigmoose in the past. Two years ago they crossed Wales in a wheelie bin to raise money for bigmoose and vlogged the entire trip.
