Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On the 18th April this year I bought a bicycle, not having ridden one for over 15 years. I am now preparing to take part in this challenge and have just 9 weeks to train... from zero to 47 miles!!

I feel it is a small challenge compared to the courage and bravery shown by my cousin Deborah who sadly lost her battle with breast cancer in March. She was only 46 years old.

She spent the last few weeks of her life in St. Cuthbert's Hospice. It is a wonderful, uplifting place and Deborah was happy and content there. I wish to appeal for sponsorship and hope to raise lots of money for the Hospice and in memory of Debi.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. 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. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.

Thank you
