Matthew's Coast to Coast Bike Ride 2024

Story

My Coast to Coast Bike Ride 2024 in aid of The Great North Children’s Hospital & MediCinema. This year i'll be taking on a new route cycling 185 from Blackpool to Cleethorpes.

This is my 4th solo coast to coast bike ride to raise money for two brilliant causes who have given Henry and ourselves amazing care and support every time we have been to the RVI Newcastle, through Henry's multiple operations and routine visits.

Since my 1st coast to coast bike ride, the support and money raised has been very overwhelming and motivates me to keep going! The rides have been very challenging but the feeling when I get to the finish is such a great sense of achievement.

Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving Page, wishing me good luck on my next coast to coast and for any donations to these two amazing charities.

I'd like to keep funds as equal as possible please for both causes.

Thank You

Matthew, Rebekah, Henry and Arlo.

Donations to the Great North Childrens Hospital Foundation support the many children and their families who come to our hospital for treatment and care, making their experience the best it possibly can be.

Innovations that really make a difference to our patients and staff including life changing research, cutting-edge equipment and technology are funded by donations along with initiatives to support the wellbeing and development of our staff.

Evidence shows that children have a quicker recovery when they are in an environment they enjoy and we strive to make GNCH as welcoming and friendly as it can be.
