Story

1 in 5 of us will develop a lung condition during our lifetime. There's a new diagnosis every minute.

I'm fundraising for Asthma + Lung UK. They’re the only UK charity that fights for everyone’s right to breathe. Every pound I'm able to raise will take us a step closer to a world where everyone has healthy lungs.

Im starting my trip on May 3rd 2024 and cycling from Old Harry rocks in Dorset to Lands End to then go north to Skaw in Shetland (the northern most settlement in the UK) and to end 50 days later at Yestival festival near Boston Lincolnshire. A total distance of over 3800 km.

I have limited lung function and eosinophilic sever asthma and long covid. I take numerous medications and am lucky to receive biological therapy and wonderful support from my hospital team. I a great believer in the power of getting outdoors and remaining positive. It's my turn to do something to give back and to raise funds for all those living with with lung problems.

I'd be very grateful for any donations you could make!
