This will probably sound crazy, however I'm cycling 500km from London 2 Paris from Thursday 5th - Monday 9th June 2025 to raise funds for blood cancer charity Cure Leukaemia

Prior to January, my cycling experience went no further than a few trips around the Guild Wheel, however, I have thrown myself into this, invested in a Road bike and begun pedalling mile upon mile of tarmac and pot holes, to get myself in some kind of physical shape to complete this goal, for such a worthy cause. As you will all know, I do have a love of good food and wine, however things have had to change and my focus is now about fitting in Lycra and doing my best not to fall off the bike whilst getting used to the dreaded cleats. I will continue to post my progress.

Thankyou for taking the time to read this and please help me to reach my target.

Every penny I raise will go towards funding specialist research nurses at 15 blood cancer centres across the UK who connect patients with the latest treatments through clinical trials.

Not only do these trials save lives they also help hasten global progress towards eradicating all forms of this disease.
