Story

I'll soon be cycling (as best I can!) to raise money for heart research in Scotland. This is a personal story and I am determined to raise money every year to help (maybe, hopefully) as much as I can , prevent tragedies and lives cut short. A drop in the ocean I know, but a drop nevertheless.

Thank you to all those who have supported this. Some had sponsored the previous challenge (comedy) which I switched to cycling. I'm sorry if your names don't feature on this page.. but I am grateful. You have been so many, and so generous.

THANK YOU ALL
