Story

What was I thinking?

I should have said no... I am not a cyclist, I didn't even have a bike when I said yes.  50 miles I thought would be OK.  Why would you do that?

Well, whatever effort I have to put in on the day (or possible three days in my case!) it is nothing compared to the stress and worry families are going through when RMHC is able to help them.  Neither will it come close to the dedication of the staff who help the families when they are need of such support.

That is why I am doing it, simple as that.  We are riding as the Martin Brower Quality Team so by supporting one of us, you are supporting all of us to raise a total of £1200.

A bit more about RMHC's work below...

Ronald McDonald House Charities UK provides free ‘home away from home’ accommodation to families with children having treatment in hospital. Our Houses offer much more than just a place to stay; they provide family activities, peer support, respite, and many other services. This means that families can be by their child’s bedside in a matter of moments, whilst maintaining a degree of normal life with reduced emotional and financial strain. We help over 6,000 families each year and now, more than ever, we need your support. Thank you.
