Story

We are fundraising for the BDD Foundation to shine an additional beam of light onto the Foundation's work and message of unity and hope.

We met as housemates during lockdown and began cycling around Sheffield and the Peak District on the tandem. We are now a couple and continue to enjoy racking up the scenic miles, including trips to Scotland, Liverpool, Wales and now London! BDD has reared its unwanted head personally within my family and we are proud to be taking the tandem on tour to raise money for the Foundation and acknowledge the courage of anyone who has been affected by BDD.

Since creating the BDD Foundation fundraising page, Wayne and I have felt energised by the love and support being shown our way and the knowledge that the work of the foundation is reaching new people. To raise further awareness and as a kind of thank you for donations received (since neither of us use facebook, twitter etc.) we have created a youtube channel for people to follow our training progress. We will be uploading videos soon: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnvVFaJz0HGE8fMvkzBVhlw/featured
