Charity
Shooting Star CHASE is the children's hospice service, supporting local families with a child or teenager not expected to reach their 19th birthday. Shooting Star CHASE currently helps over 500 families living in western London, Surrey and West Sussex. We are committed to caring for these families. We are here for every step of their journey, sharing the good times, and helping them through the tough times with practical, nursing and emotional support. Families receive our support free of charge, 365 days a year, in their own homes and communities and at our children’s hospices. With no guaranteed Government funding we must raise £23,000 a day to continue our vital service. For more details, or to find out how you can help visit shootingstarchase.org.uk

End-to-End in 2 weeks
Hi, thanks for visiting my page.
On 15 May 2010 I will be setting off from Lands End on a 900+ mile cycle ride to John O'Groats. I aim to complete the journey in 14 cycle days, with a day off in the middle to rest my weary body!
To help spur me on I'm hoping to raise a few thousand pounds for CHASE hospice care for children. CHASE is a children's hospice service which provides a network of care to families with life-limited children and young people in South West London, Surrey and Sussex.
If you would like to support me, you can sponsor me through Virgin Money Giving. All donations will be quickly processed and passed to CHASE, along with the gift aid where the donor is eligible for this.
I really appreciate your support and thank you for any donations. If you would like to follow my progress, you can find regular updates on my training and the ride itself on a blog my wife (Joan) has started on her company website:

Thanks and Best Wishes
Stephen
