I'm forwarding this in the hope that Tagland can weave some magic in the donations direction.
Oliver is a friend of ours, locals may have seen him on his bike slogging up local hills recently, he's a wonderful young man, full of determination & energy which is just what he'll need when cycling this 12 hour challenge, he will get 2 half hour breaks during the 12 hours, a feat of endurance worth sponsoring & the fact that the money will go to such a good cause makes it totally worth while. Fundraising has been a bit slow apparently & I'm hoping that our little corner can make a difference.
Thank you Laura x
November last year, my grandfather, Anthony Read, died after a long battle with cancer. The pain he went through must have been excruciating, and the care he needed was vital in keeping him going. Rennie Grove Hospice provided this crucial support, and allowed him to spend every day he could surrounded by his family and loved ones.
Rennie Grove Hospice Care is entirely dependent on donations. Whilst millions of pounds goes towards cancer research and finding cures, not enough goes towards helping those who already have the disease. The NHS does not provide such a much needed service, and one day someone you love might need Rennie Grove's care.
Cancer patients, and their families need our help. That is why, on the 23rd July 2016, I will be attempting an Everest Challenge. This is to climb the total elevation of Mount Everest in one go, on my bike. This is 29,029ft of climbing- almost 90 times up one of the biggest hills in the Chilterns. I know it won't be easy. Fighting cancer isn't easy though- but it's a fight we need to do!
So please, help me in this challenge. Donate anything you can, so that together, we can help those that really need our help.
Thank you
