When selecting a charity we were initially at a loss for ideas. With so many
wonderful charitable organistaions available, what selection criteria should be
used? We received some simple advice from a friend; "Choose one that deals
with an issue that holds meaning for you".
Upon reflection it was simple. We came to the realisation that there are a
large number of our family and friends who have suffered and passed away from the
effects of cancer or they have someone close to them that has suffered the same
fate. As a result, we have selected
MacMillan Cancer Support as our charity
of choice.
MacMillan Cancer Support is a fantastic organisation that provide
practical, medical, emotional and financial support to cancer patients and the loving
people that surround them. Many of our family and friends have been lucky
enough to have MacMillan Cancer Support assist them through their difficult times.
We have set a Fundraising Target of 10,200 GBP which is approximately 1 pound for
every mile each of us rides. Donations can be made via our
Just Giving website.
Please note that this trip is an entirely self-funded
journey so 100% of all donations made will go directly to MacMillan Cancer Support.
We hope that you will give generously and get behind this worthy cause!
