Story
Most of you will know that I have done alot of running challenges, this year I wanted a new challenge. I am switching my running shoes to bike shoes and breaking free from being a fair weather cyclists. Embarking on an epic week long adventure through France over of 300 miles 🇫🇷🚴♀️🥖💪
Working in care I know how hard it can be. Please help me to raise vital funds for their amazing work. Every little helps 🥰

The challenge:
Our team of cyclists will start their journey at Portsmouth, crossing the channel by ferry , arriving in France where the challenge really starts commencing 4 days of cycling through Normandy and Brittany on quiet French country lanes, past traditional market towns whilst enjoying the views of gorgeous sandy beaches and the stunning French countryside. They arrive in Roscoff at the end of day 5 where we will ferry the team back to Plymouth ready for the final day in the saddle
Day 6 will begin in Plymouth where our team will peddle back through Cornwall taking in our familiar but spectacular Cornish scenery, welcoming the Team to their finale to cross the finish line as heroes at Mount Edgcumbe Hospice in St Austell. The pride, comradery, and sense of achievement will make all the days in the saddle worth it!
Our purpose is to provide compassionate, specialised end of life care for patients, their families and carers at the time when they need it most. Together with our local community in Cornwall we will continue to make every day matter.
We strive to develop and secure the resources necessary to achieve this, both now and in the future. With only 17% of our funding coming from Cornwall's NHS Commissioners, the rest is raised with the support of the people of Cornwall and beyond - thank you all.
