I am delighted to announce that once again I am taking part in The Ford 100 Mile Ride London, cycling 100 Miles in aid of the truly remarkable charity, Spread a Smile.

The mission at Spread a Smile is to distract seriously ill children and teenagers from the monotony of long hospital stays by spreading joy and laughter.

Every year, their teams of entertainers make thousands of virtual and bedside visits, distracting children from pain and treatment, breaking the monotony of the hospital environment and creating positive memories for them, their parents and siblings.

Their support also includes family events and outings, Smile TV, art workshops, painting children's radiotherapy masks and family support.

I am proud to say that the nominated charity for Corinthia London is Spread a Smile and that I will be able to support them through my efforts cycling on the 100 mile ride at the end of May.

It would mean so much to so many children, teenagers and families if you could donate anything you can towards such a profound charity.

Thank You All!
