I'm fundraising for the Guide Dogs Puppy Appeal to help turn pups into life-changing guide dog partnerships.

I've decided to do another sponsored cycle ride (on my static bike) this time it's 60 miles, equal to the distance from the Welwyn Garden City Guide Dogs Centre to the South East Regional Guide Dogs Centre in Reading.

Every day, 250 people in the UK begin to lose their sight – that’s one person every six minutes. Without the right support, people can be left feeling alone and isolated. From their friends and family, careers and communities, from the world they knew and the lives they planned.

But Guide Dogs transform the lives of people with vision impairments; being partnered with a guide dog reduces loneliness and enables people with sight loss to get out and live the life they choose.

Even a small donation can make a big difference. Together, we can help raise the next generation of guide.

I shall update you with a daily blog for the 5 day ride, with info on the "route" and "interesting items" I come across during each day.
