On March 27th 2011 I and my nephew John Bryan-Merrett completed riding the famous 100 mile Cheshire Cat in aid of Cancer Research UK. This was a massive personal challenge which included the ridiculously steep Mow Cop - at 25% it's hard enough to walk up but I ascended it with feet firmly locked in pedals!

Cancer has had a life-changing effect on my family over the last 12 months. Cancer Research UK has really helped us with essential information to help us understand the disease and the treatments.

It is thanks to the work of organisations like Cancer Research UK that we can all help to beat cancer. There is so much more to learn and do and your money will really make a big difference.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer.
