Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Kennedy's Disease UK (KD-UK) is the only UK based charity raising funds to help raise awareness of this awful disease, which affects a very good friend of the riders.  We want to help make sure that this rare, often misdiagnosed disease is recognised as well as making people aware of the effect it has on sufferers, their families and their friends.  There is only one centre carrying out vital research in the UK and we hope that our efforts will help them find a cure.

The ride is entirely self-funded with all proceeds going straight to the charity.  It will be an enormous challenge over the 8 days of riding, even for the more experienced riders, covering more than 1000kms and well over 20,000 metres of climbing.  We are giving not just our time, money and enthusiasm to the cause, but also dedicating many months of training in preparation - eeeeek!!

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
