Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page. 

Amanda and I have signed up to this challenge to raise money for Macmillan cancer support because we believe in their Recovery Package. The details are on the Macmillan website (url below) but in a nutshell, the money raised will make a real difference in quality of life for many people living with and beyond cancer and the effects of treatment.

When first asked by our good friends Colin and Beverley Beresford to cycle the length of France, we forgot our geography and the topography. As newcomers to cycling, although Derek has been regularly cycling the 2.1 miles from home to work, we were unaware of the magnitude of the challenge we had taken on, but the enormity of it is slowly  dawning - your support will really help us on those long miles, particularly in the mountains!

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.
