Thank you all for the sponsorship
Hi, thanks for visiting my page.
This year I am trying to raise money for the British Heart Foundation by riding in their event cycling from London to Brussels. In 24 hours!
The British Heart Foundation is the nation's heart charity. Their vision is a world where people don't die prematurely from heart disease and they aim to achieve this through pioneering research, vital prevention activity and ensuring quality care and support for everyone living with heart disease.
Heart disease remains the UK's single biggest killer and at some time it affects most families - I know it has affected mine. So please support me in this worthy cause.
I will be keeping a blog of my training activities which will you can follow here.
Through Virgin Money Giving, you can sponsor me and donations will be quickly processed and passed to charities. Virgin Money Giving is a not for profit organisation and will claim gift aid on a charity's behalf where the donor is eligible for this.
I really appreciate all your support and thank you for any donations.
