Story
On 4th August 2020, The British Red Cross turned 150 years old. I feel very privileged to be the Buckinghamshire President of The British Red Cross and see first hand the work that they do across the county and beyond.
To mark the incredible journey that this charity has been on, helping millions of people along the way, I have set myself a target to go on 150 bike rides across 12 months, starting on 4th August 2020.
On this page i'll be updating my progress, sharing my highlights and perhaps even some challenges (though hopefully not too many!) and hopefully even have some friends join me along the way.
Your support will help keep me going, (especially when the weather turns cold and wet!) but more importantly, will help the British Red Cross be there for those who are in crisis.
The British Red Cross plays a vital role in emergency response, and the ongoing, ever-changing situation concerning the COVID-19 pandemic is no exception.In times of crisis, we’re here to help people. We’re local and we’re global and we’ve been doing this for 150 years. Our network of incredible staff and volunteers means we are uniquely placed to reach people in fearful, uncertain times. But it’s the generosity of our supporters that enables our work to happen quickly and efficiently. We rely on your support to keep us going.
