Story
Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.
You may remember that a group of landscapers,
plants-people, designers and contractors first came together to raise money for
Perennial in 2013 with the Three Peaks Extreme challenge. We climbed the three
highest peaks in the UK, and cycled between them, in just 5 days raising over
£26,000 for our industry charity.
This year we're back with a bigger team, a
different challenge and a higher target.
Two teams of cyclists will set off from Snowdon
in September 2016, one team on road bikes, the other on mountain bikes, both
aiming for Lands End. One team will stay on-road, the other will ride
exclusively off-road. Who will reach Lands End quickest, and who will raise the
most money?
Why we're riding:
Perennial is the only UK charity dedicated to
helping all horticulturists, and their families, when one of life's challenges
makes the going tough. Perennial offers free and confidential help, advice and
financial assistance for as long as it is needed. Often described simply as a
'lifeline' by those it helps, we want to raise a significant amount of money
this year to help Perennial support colleagues across the UK.
Remember: Donating through JustGiving is
simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving -
they'll never share them with anyone or send you unwanted emails. Once you
donate, they'll send your money directly to the charity. They'll make sure Gift
Aid (an additional 25%) is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK
taxpayer, too. That means more money goes to the charity, faster, with
JustGiving.
