Coast To Coast Ukrainian Fundraiser - your chance to win a prize!

Do you want to raise money for The Ukraine and win a nice bottle of wine or box of chocs? That's easy - just enter my competition: You just need to simply guess the amount of minutes I'll be in the saddle as I cycle from Whitehaven to Tynmouth over the bank holiday at the end of the month. The nearest guess will receive the prize 🎉. My best mates, The SheffLads, and I are taking on the challenge. See the link below to read about the charity and to donate via Just Giving.

Given the acute humanitarian crisis created by the Russian invasion, Ukraine Charity is now fundraising for emergency medical supplies for Ukrainians.

The funds will be used to procure medicines and medical equipment from UK and European suppliers. Donations have already been used to purchase trauma treatment packages, and the list of others essentials to be supplied is growing rapidly.

A team of volunteers is currently liaising with the Ukrainian national healthcare system and verified local NGOs on the one side, and with suppliers that can address these needs on the other side. The current focus is on first aid. Critical supplies to be secured at the next stage include portable ventilators, patient monitors, defibrillators, ultrasound diagnostic devices, first aid kits and emergency surgery equipment.

Important: you can use GiftAid if you're a UK taxpayer, which will be added to your donation!
