Story

Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

After being affected by the Cockermouth floods in 2009, on the 18th September i'll be cycling 40 miles (with my friend Ange as 'Team Betty & Bernard' - we'll be wearing tutus!!) in the CCF/Jennings River Ride event for Cockermouth Flood Action Group (for more info see: www.cockermouthfloodactiongroup.org.uk), to help raise funds towards the town’s £5.2 million flood defence scheme.  In order to secure Government funding the community has to raise £300,000.  Cumbria Community Foundation has been very generous and kick started Cockermouth Flood Action Group’s fundraising efforts by giving £100,000, which leaves us with a target of £200,000.  Please help....
