Thanks for taking the time to visit our teams JustGiving page.

We are taking on the huge challenge of cycling the length of Wales, 220 miles from Holyhead to the Vale of Glamorgan, to raise money for Cancer Research Wales in memory of our mum Jayne. Our mum was a kind, caring and warm person whose smile lit up every room she entered. She was a devoted mother and wife and a friend to all who met her. 

She was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2017. She was very scared and nervous but she overcame this and beat the disease and we saw a level of strength, determination, courage and bravery which made us see our mum in a completely different light. We saw a side of our mum which we didn't realise she had. She was an absolute warrior taking all of the treatment they offered her and  fighting through the hard days for the good days which were to follow. We cannot put into words how proud of our mum we are. That was undoubtedly the hardest thing she had ever faced and we as a family were there with her every step of the way but she had to walk the journey and goodness me she didn't just walk the journey she flew through it showing the bravery and courage in her heart each and every day. 

Sadly, after 4 years the cancer returned and our mum lost her battle with cancer. She passed away on the 6th of December 2021. This was and still is devastating for us as a family. However, as we know our mum would have wanted, we decided to celebrate her life and raise money in her name. We hope to carry on her legacy and ensure that this money will help and support individuals and their families with a similar story to ours. 

There is a team of 20 of us taking part in this 'Ride for Jayne' and we hope you'll come along for the ride with us. We plan to have an event on the 31st of July at the finish line of our cycle. There will be raffles, food & drink as well as some more opportunities to donate to Cancer Research Wales. The finish line will be at St Cyres School in Penarth, we hope to see as many of you there as possible!

Thank you so much for your support!!
