Thank you for visiting my JustGiving page.

The staff at Bidwells are celebrating the company's 175th anniversay with all offices getting together for a fun day on Thursday 24th July at Stowe School, Buckinghamshire, England. The majority of the Scottish staff are flying down but myself and Clive Meikle (from our Inverness office), accompanied by two others, have decided to Cycle from Perth to Stowe to raise money for CHAS. The intention is to cycle approximatly 500 miles over 5 days which means being on the saddle for about 10 hours every day.

CHAS is the only charity in Scotland that provides vital hospice services for children and young people with life-shortening conditions. They offer care for the whole family in their two children’s hospices, Rachel House in Kinross and Robin House in Balloch. They also run a homecare service called CHAS at Home helping families in their own homes across Scotland when they need it most. They are currently supporting over 300 families, as well as a significant number of families who receive bereavement support. Their services are funded mainly through the generosity of their many supporters who help them to raise over £9 million needed each year to provide these hospice services. - See more at: http://www.chas.org.uk

This event has been organised to raise money for CHAS, chosen by Bidwells as its nominated charity as part of the Firm's fundraising initiative in celebration of Bidwells' 175^th anniversary , and in support of CHAS' essential work for children's hospices
