Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page for our charity cycle raising money for Guy’s Cancer Charity.
In February 2022 we received the heart wrenching news that my girlfriend, Lucie, was diagnosed with breast cancer.
This was definitely a curveball and something we weren’t expecting to deal with at 27 years old. We definitely had no idea what was in store over the coming months or how to prepare for it.
Watching someone, especially a loved one, battling cancer is not easy to say the least and I felt like there was something more that I could do.
As a fairly active cyclist I came up with the idea of cycling from London (where we live), to St Albans (Lucie’s home) to Devizes (my home) a distance of 200km in 1 day to raise money for Guy’s cancer charity where Lucie is receiving her treatment. The facilities and staff at Guy’s are absolutely amazing and have made the past few months as stress free as possible.
Luckily for us we have a great group of friends and family to help along the way including 4 of my friends who have volunteered to join me on this cycle to raise some cash for Guy’s.
