Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
In May 2022 we will be taking on the Spinal Injuries Association's European Cycle Challenge. This time it is to handcycle/cycle the Tuscan Loop. We will cycle from Pisa to Sienna, Sienna to Florence, then heading back to Pisa. Doing our best to conquer the hills and loving the descents. Over 3 days we will cover a distance of 190 miles.
In 2003 following a freak motorbike accident I was given the devastating news that I had sustained a Spinal Cord Injury. This left me paralysed from the chest down. With losing the use of 3/4's of my body and total loss of bodily functions I thought my life was over, I thought I was destined to an existence of ridicule and depression. As part of my rehabilitation I was introduced to the Spinal Injuries Association. This organisation has helped me rebuild my life back to independence. I now work for the SIA helping people come to terms with life changing injuries. We help people move on to live fulfilled lives no matter what the cause of injury or the level of impairment, the SIA will help them rebuild their lives. As a charity they do not receive any government funding and rely heavily on donations. Please help us reach our goal and help this charity continue doing their amazing work
