Story

So basically this is all new to me and I've never raised money for charity before, just donated.  So I thought in memory of my Mother I'm going to raise awareness of this dreadful disease. For those who know will understand its not a nice way to go. By raising money we hope to help tackle this disease. I am going to do this in the way of cycling challenges since I am a keen cyclist afterall. 

Now to the sad bit my Mother. We first noticed something wasn't quite wright with My Mother back in Sept 2022. She kept falling over and after a few visits and stays in hospital she deteriated slowly. This disease got hold of her and she was loosing her movement  and speech daily. Then on new years eve we were told she had MND. Long story short she came home where she wanted to be and gradually got worse until the morning of Feb 10th 2023 when she lost her fight and sadly passed away.

So let's do this together and raise as much money as we can to fight this dreadful disease. 

Love Jason. 

RIP Mother ❤️
