Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

 

On the 8th of June I will be taking part in a bike ride from the National Cycling Centre in Manchester to London’s Olympic Park. It is a distance of 250 miles, which I will complete in under 24 hours. It now seems slightly daunting and maybe a tad insane, to quote friend of mine, but it is all for a good cause as my aim is to raise money for Make-A-Wish Foundation UK.

Most of us are lucky and have a lifetime to turn our goals and dreams into reality. Sadly, there are some children living with a life-threatening condition, many of them with just weeks to live, who will never get that chance. Make-A-Wish Foundation® UK has one very simple objective – to grant the wishes of these very special children.

Regardless of its cost or complexity, Make-A-Wish aims to turn a child’s wish into a magical and memorable reality. Whether the wish is to meet someone famous, own something, visit somewhere or do something special, its coming true can bring a little sunshine into lives that have been dominated by pain and trauma, providing respite from their normal routines of hospitals, doctors and treatment.

Every penny of your sponsorship will go to this excellent cause. It will also keep me motivated and focused on smashing this challenge as I will know someone else will gain far more than what I’m aiming to achieve personally.

I really appreciate all your support and thank you for any donations you are able to make.
