I'm taking part in this ride with Club Peloton in support of Coram Adoption for the fantastic work they are doing to help find adopted children a loving and caring home. Why am I doing this? Well that's a long story!
We (Nichola and I) have already been on a journey that first involved cancer, then recovery and afterwards the emotional rollercoaster of not being able to have our own children.
During this journey, we explored adoption and learned how complex and challenging it is for everyone involved first hand. It must be focused around the benefits to the child and I believe that Coram's work supports this and for that reason - I'm going to put myself through the wringer and ride to Cannes to raise as much awareness and funding as I possibly can with every turn of the pedal.
Your support will make all the difference I promise!

Raising Funds For
Club Peloton
Club Peloton is a fundraising charity which uses cycling as its platform for challenge events, bringing together a love for the sport and the opportunity to raise money for great causes.
Our main grant recipient - receiving two thirds of all funds raised - is Coram, the UK’s oldest and first children’s charity that has been supporting vulnerable children for over 275 years. Their flagship service, Coram Adoption, is the most successful voluntary adoption agency in the UK., finding loving and secure homes for some of the most vulnerable and hard-to-place children in the country. They now help more than 1.25 million children and young people every year, and this would not be possible without the generosity of our riders
Club Peloton will be supporting Coram’s vital programmes, with a specific focus on Coram’s unrivalled and pioneering adoption service. For more information please visit: www.coram.org.uk.
