I work for HHA and have been organising this crazy 1000km hand-bike relay to Switzerland for 4 years now. I took an active (ish) part in the first year but since then I’ve taken on the logistics role and let others experience the joy (pain) of hand-cycling and raising the money.

But this year is different. The Haiti hospital HHA co-founded 11 years ago is facing a financial challenge right now and as a charity we are trying to raise £30,000 to ensure critical health services remain open. 

It seems only fair that I get my hands dirty again and not only help the team as best I can but also raise my own money towards this significant target.

So if you want to help our hospital in its time of need, and also force me to get back on the bike for some more pain, then please sponsor me whatever you can!
