The Great British Care Cycle Relay Scottish Leg!

As a curtain-raiser for the Great British Care Cycle Relay, I will be riding from Gretna Green to Manchester.  140 miles, 6000 foot of hills, one day!  Eek!!

This will be my longest ride ever.  And rather more hills than I would have liked!  And I'm definitely not getting any younger (or slimmer!)! But I am doing it for two fantastic causes...

Firstly, I will be raising funds for the CareTech Foundation to help them to support more care professionals through their Hardship Fund.  The social care sector employs a staggering 1.6million people - more than the NHS - but thanks to chronic Government under-funding, so many of these amazing individuals are struggling to make ends meet and the Foundation's grants make a massive difference.

Secondly, I will also be raising funds for Carers Worldwide which supports unpaid carers in India, Nepal and Bangladesh.  I have seen at first-hand the incredible impact of the charity's work in the most difficult of communities, transforming the lives of inspirational individuals caring for their loved ones.

I do hope that you can help me to raise a heap of money to support these brilliant two charities, both of which are very close to me heart.

Thank you,

Please note that donations will be split 50-50 between the two charities.  Your donation will go to CareTech Foundation which will then share 50% of the donations (and Gift Aid) with Carers Worldwide.  Unfortunately, Give As You Live only allows users to list one charity.)
