I'm taking on the Cycle 300km for Young Lives vs Cancer.

I'm taking on the Cycle 300km Challenge for Young Lives vs Cancer in August.
Join me in supporting a good cause and your contribution will make a big impact to children and young people with cancer.
 

Young Lives vs Cancer help families find the strength to face whatever cancer throws at them. But every day 12 more children and young people hear the devastating news they have cancer. Make a donation and show your support today. 

  • £15 could go towards a grant to cover travel costs for long journeys to live saving treatment 
  • £26 could pay for an hour with a Young Lives vs Cancer Specialist Social Worker. They help families understand and cope with the emotional, practical and financial effects of cancer. 
  • £70 could pay for a night in a Young Lives vs Cancer Homes from Home, a free place for families to stay close to specialist hospitals when their child is going through treatment, keeping families together.

A big thanks to all those who have sponsored me in this challenge so far. Yhe initial target has been reached, but let's see if we can stretch that goal somewhat. 

Today is a big day

Today, my daughter whom I am doing this for, was officially discharged from hospital after her treatment for AML ended. She is 100% cancer free and moving forward with a strength that simplt amazes me

Riding for Autumn-Mae

Thursday 10th Jul
Back in January 2025, my 2yo daughter Autumn-Mae was diagnosed with Acute Myeloid Leukaemia.  That was when my whole word was turned upside-down. 

If it hadnt been for the help we received from Young Lives vs Cancer,  I don't think I could have coped. They were here for me when I needed someone the most, and this is my way of saying Thank You. 

Autumn-Mae has now rang her bell and her treatment is over, so now it's time for me to get on my bike and raise some funds as a huge show of gratitude. 

Thank you to my Sponsors
