Story

During this unusual difficult time it can be hard to find ways to stay motivated and in a good head space. Having been isolating since 8th March things are definitely getting harder. I've decided to set myself a challenge which is something productive for me but its also helping others which drives me more. So my plan is for every 10 Miles i Cycle on my turbo trainer i will donate £1 to charity.  I will accumulate the miles up over the week Monday- Sunday and donate the amount on the Sunday evening to make things simple. 

I will be doing majority of the miles on my turbo trainer, using zwift which is a virtual cycling app. Which will record my miles and upload them on to strava. 

Why did i choose Venture Scotland. I was a participant on the course just  over five years ago, i had very little confidence no self belief and to be honest at that point i didn't see there being a future. Over the time of the course building confidence and starting to believe in my self. Having the confidence then to apply for college course and get accepted. My future got brighter. Venture Scotland not only changed my life it saved my life.
