Story

Hello everyone,

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

On the 6th July I am attempting the challenging cycle ride from Lands End to John O'Groats.  I am doing the 1000 mile cycle over 14days, averaging about 70miles a day but will be cycling anywhere between 60-80miles a day (provided I don't get lost!). Raising money for such a good cause in the process will no doubt help motivate me over the 14 days. If I can reach my fundraising target it will roughly raise enough for a day of research into understanding the condition and developing treaments!

Multiple Sclerosis is a disease affecting the central nervous system and affects approx 100,000 people in the UK.  There is currently no cure to MS but there is much to learn about the disease still which is why I have gone for a research based charity.
I appreciate that not everyone can afford to donate but if you can then any donations, however small, would be very much appreciated by myself and by MS Research

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 sponsor me now!

Thanks for your support, it's much appreciated.
