Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my page.

In July this year I will be cycling from London to Istanbul to raise money for ABF: The Soldier's Charity. I will be cycling the 5000 kilometres along with 12 other Durham Students. The team has set the target of averaging 100km a day, a difficult task that will be made even harder by the searing heat.

My aim is to raise as much as possible between now and the day we set off, all in the name of ABF: The Soldier's charity. The charity supports serving and veteran soldiers and their families in many aspects of their lives. With many familly members on my mother's side having served, and some having died during the first and second world wars, it is a charity that I feel I have an important familly link to. 

So please donate anything you can, I really appreciate any contributions!

Ben :)
