I am hoping to raise as much money as I possibly can for a local children's hospice in North Wales by cycling from London to Paris.

Ty Gobaith Children’s Hospice is a centre of excellence for children’s palliative care ensuring every family facing the death of a child gets the very best care and support when and where they need it.

Ty Gobaith Children’s Hospices are here to make sure that no one faces the death of their child alone.

They support more than 750 local families who are either caring for a terminally ill child, or whose child has died.

It costs £7.5 million every year to offer their services and 80% of this is spent on care. Approximately two month’s income comes from statutory sources and for the other 10 months of the year they are dependent on public support.

Over the last decade or so I have supported this amazing hospice and have visited several times and have witnessed first hand the fantastic care and work they offer.

Our start line will be in Greenwich Park in southeast London and we'll be heading to Newhaven to catch our ferry to Dieppe.

DAY 2

Arriving very early in Dieppe, our route joins the Avenue Verte: a beautiful, purpose-built cycle route southward to Paris.

DAY 3

The final stretch from Beauvais to Paris

A portion of funds raised are used to cover to cost of the fundraising challenge.
