Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

We're a group of friends trying to remember our great brother, friend and son, Bertie, who tragically left us last year. We're doing this by cycling  from Ely, where he was from, to Bournemouth, where he studied at university. The round trip is nearly 1000km and people in the group range from experienced cyclists to totally inexperienced, all driven on by the chance to remember our lovely friend and to make a massive difference to a great cause that was important to him.

We're doing this ride because Bertie had cycled across Italy, raising money for Rethink previously, and we want to take on a challenge that he would relate to and raise to money for a cause close to his heart. 

Bert always made a difference to those who met him, trying to help in his own gentle way. What we want is that, because of him, people with their own personal mental health issues get the help and support they need. It is through donating to Rethink that we can make this happen, and you can help too.

You don't need to donate much, it all adds up and goes a long way to helping those in need. Every time you donate, you help us help Bert help the people who need it most.

A big thanks from all of us.
