We're taking on the Kid's Summer Challenge for Young Lives vs Cancer.

Want to join us in supporting a good cause?

We're taking on the Kids' Summer Challenge for Young Lives vs Cancer, and your contribution will make an impact, whether you donate £5 or £500. Every little bit helps. Thank you for your support.

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

Just a £26 donation could fund an hour of support from a Young Lives vs Cancer specialist social worker, ensuring children, young people and families always have someone by their side throughout their cancer journey.

£70 could pay for a night in a Young Lives vs Cancer Home from Home, a free place for families to stay close to specialist hospitals when their child is going through treatment, keeping families together.

Join me in supporting a good cause. Your contribution will make a big impact, whether you donate £5 or £500. Every little bit helps. 

Thank you for your support.

Wet wet wet

Wednesday 29th Jul
Today we cycled to a park we’ve not been to before - only 2.4miles round trip. We thought we were going to beat the rain but we couldn’t have been more wrong. By the time we returned our clothes and shoes and everything were completely drenched. The kids did an awesome job cycling in heavy rain especially back up the big hill to our house! 

Kids cycling and walking for charity

Tuesday 28th Jul
We have managed to be out every day in between windy spells and rain showers. The kids are excited to have their mileage counted and see the fundraising total increase for their charity.  Yesterday was the first walk rather than cycle. 

Thursday - Day 4

Thursday 23rd Jul
Today our little boy (3yo) came with us on a 32km round trip to a cafe we like in a nearby town.  He cycled about 16km of this - and was cruising!  We are so proud of him and his efforts today on his little 16" bike!  Don't worry, the rest of the time he had a wee rest in the Thule!  Dad has the pictures so will post when i get one from him.

Kids cycling for charity

Monday 20th Jul
Our two kids (5yo and 3yo) are cycling at least 1 mile per day for “young lives vs cancer” during the summer holidays - 31 days in total. Today they did a short cycle to the local park which was 4.48km (2.77 miles).
