šŸš“ā€ā™‚ļø **The Rock To Morocco: A Solo Charity Cycle in aid of the Eilidh Brown Respite Home** šŸŒ

From Saturday, 3rd May 2025, I will attempt a 4000km charity cycle, solo and unaided, from Stirling Castle in Scotland to Marrakesh in southern Morocco on the African continent, all in support of the incredible Eilidh Brown Respite Home.

My journey will take me through 7 countries in just 6 weeks, navigating my way from Scotland to England, through the Netherlands, Belgium, France, across the Pyrenees Mountains at the Col Du Portelait mountain pass and down into Spain, through Zaragoza and Madrid, before crossing to Tangiers, Morocco on the continent of Africa. From there I will travel south to Casablanca then on towards the Atlas Mountains, hopefully arriving in the southern Moroccan city of Marrakesh, around the middle of June 2025.

Why am I doing this? Because the Eilidh Brown Respite Home provides much-needed support and a safe haven for families dealing with the unimaginable. They offer a space of comfort and care, and I want to help ensure that with annual costs of around £50,000, they can continue their unbelievable work.

But I can't do it alone—I need your help! By sponsoring my ride, you'll be directly supporting the Eilidh Brown Respite Home and the incredible families they assist. Every mile I ride will be powered by your generosity and our belief in this cause.

Your kindness and teamwork built this, let’s keep it going, help me please.

Please consider making a donation through my JustGiving page, and if you'd like to follow my journey, find the link on Facebook and Instagram. Together, we can make a difference, one pedal stroke at a time.

Please like and share far and wide and get as many people, companies and community groups on board as you can, we’re a big team, Eilidh’s Army.

Thank you for your support—let’s make this journey count!
