I am fundraising for the wonderful Children's Adventure Farm Trust (CAFT). CAFT provides day trips, short breaks and respite activities for children from all over the North West who may have complex medical needs, special educational needs and disability or are socially disadvantaged.

I will be part of a team who will be cycling around the Italian Lakes - 585km in 4 days with elevation upto 10,000m. This will be the hardest bike ride I have done.

The route will visit numerous lakes nestled at the foot of the Alps in this beautiful corner of the World, including Lake Garda, Lake Iseo, Lake Como. Lake Lugano, Lake Maggiore, to name a few.
