Cycle from UK to Turkey · 15 August 2024

Marie Curie provides care and support for people living with any terminal illness across the UK. Our nurses work night and day in people’s homes and our hospices offer specialist care. We also support people emotionally, provide practical information, and match them with trained volunteers.

Story

On the 15th August 2024 I will be travelling to the port of Dover (along with two friends Martyn Heale & Andrew Jackson) and we will be getting a ferry over to Dunkirk, France. From there we will be cycling through France, Belgium, Germany, Austria, Hungary, Serbia, Bulgaria before completing our cycle in Turkey. The trip is expected to be over 2,000 miles long and will take approximately 10 weeks to complete.

In October 2014 my mum, Catherine Kerr, was admitted to the Marie Curie Hospice at Fairmilehead for end of life care. The care she received was out of this world and this cycle allows me to give something back to Marie Curie for the incredible work they undertake.

Thanks to Soul Cycles (Tollcross, Edinburgh) for helping me get a bike ready for this journey.
