Every 2 minutes someone, somewhere in the UK is diagnosed with cancer. Maggie's provide a space for those people (and their families) to help deal with such a difficult life changing/threatening experience.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I'm undertaking the Pedal for Scotland 51 mile challenge bike ride from Glasgow to Edinburgh on Sunday 11th September.

All money raised will be for Maggie's who are a innovative cancer charity providing a programme of psychological, emotional & practical support that empowers people with what they need to get through their diagnosis and to learn to live, through & beyond cancer.

1 in 3 of us will develop cancer of some form in our lifetime and the number if diagnoses is predicted to increase by 30% by 2020.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
