Raising money for PROSTATE CANCER UK, Mind BLMK, Keech Hospice Care and NOAH Enterprise

Story

Following the success of my previous football cycling challenges which have raised a staggering £25,000 since 2021, and following the incredible success of Luton Town being promoted to the Premier League, I wanted to celebrate the achievements of the community of Luton by competing my final challenge of cycling to all of Luton Town's away games for the 2023/24 season which will be over 2,000 miles between 12 August to 11 May, whilst raising awareness and donations for a number of brilliant local charities that do amazing work in the Luton Community, Information about the charities are summarised below in addition to PROSTATE CANCER UK that I am also supporting.

NOAH ENTERPRISE seeks to help the most disadvantaged in the local community. Particularly, it is focused with providing a practical, empowering and caring service to people who are homeless particularly those who are temporary or entrenched rough sleepers, and those who are marginalised and socially excluded, or have simply fallen into poverty.

MIND BLMK works across the communities to support positive mental health and wellbeing. offering a number of activities from wellbeing centres and local venues to make a difference to the mental health and wellbeing of people in Bedfordshire, Luton and Milton Keynes, to make sure that no-one has to face a mental health problem alone.

KEECH HOSPICE CARE offers specialist care for adults living in Luton and South Beds and children from across Bedfordshire, Herts and MK who have life limiting illnesses . Our aim is to help patients enjoy the highest quality of life, while providing vital support for their family and friends throughout their loved one's illness and in their bereavement and need to raise £6M a year to provide care services.

PROSTATE CANCER is the most common cancer in men, 47,500 men are diagnosed each year and one man dies every 45 minutes from this terrible disease. The support I receive is a big help to fund research and develop better treatment and further raise awareness of PROSTATE CANCER UK.

Thank you for all your support, encouragement and generosity. It means so much and is really appreciated.
