Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On 23rd May last year, Alfie and Freddie lost their only cousin - Cameron Sturge after a brave battle against a brain tumour.

Alfie came up with the idea of doing a sponsored bike ride in memory of Cameron and to help raise some money for Demelza House.  

Demelza were a huge support to Cameron's mum and dad immediately after his death.  I saw just how much it helped them initially and has continued to offer support to them since.

The Demon Duo miss Cameron very much and raising some money in Cameron's name really will help them to find a positive in something that has been very difficult for them to understand.

I know times are tough with money.  And I'm sure I won't be the only one asking you to sponsor yet another fundraising event for yet another worthy cause.  But ANY donation, no matter how big or small will be massively encouraging to Alfie and Freddie (and not to mention me, who has also, somehow, been roped into the bike ride!!!).

We'll be doing circuits around Mote Park, Maidstone on 6 May.  We won't be covering the entire park though, I hasten to add!!  We'll work out a route and between us we'll cover at least 14 rounds - 14 to represent how old Cameron would have been this year.

And now the dull, but important, bit about how to sponsor .....

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 and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.  Make the Demon Duo happy. And give me some kind of encouragement so that my aching legs will all be worth while!!

Big, massive, huge and heartfelt thanks for your support.
