We are raising much needed funds to help fight Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

Story

Hello and Welcome from Cliff & Dave

As you may be aware we both enjoy a bit of Cycling and have never refused a decent challenge!!

We have in the past raised money for local Charities that are close to our hearts through either Personal attachment or close friends or relatives.

This year We've joined together to raise money for Joining Jack 100 charity. 

Jack is a special little boy who has Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Failing a medical breakthrough, Jack's life will follow a predetermined path, mapped out by this progressive muscle wasting condition. In short, he will no longer be able to walk by the time he reaches adolescence and will lose the use of every single muscle in his body thereafter. He may need spinal rods to keep him upright and ventilation to help him breath. Eventually his heart and lungs will fail and he will die.

Cliff Played against Jacks Dad (Andy Johnson) during his playing carrer at Salford where Andy was on the opposing Wigan side.

Remember: Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving - they'll never share them with anyone or send you unwanted emails. Once you donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. They'll make sure Gift Aid (an additional 25%) is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer, too. That means more money goes to the charity, faster, with JustGiving.

Thanks for supporting us to help find a cure for this dreadful disease.
