2021 has been a mad one. So to keep up the utterly barmy nature of it, in October- I'm gonna cycle in Scotland. Where there are hills and it's cold.
Those who know me, know I detest all forms of exercise- especially when it involves moving my legs. Add to that the bloody cold wind and rain and this is literally my worst nightmare!
I’ve gone and got myself a road bike too, just to make things even more uncomfortable and unnerving. Imagine a heffalump on a tightrope trying to learn how to walk and you get the idea.
The Truants Foundation is something I've been working on with others for the past 2 years.. We're so happy to finally be an official foundation. The charities we support haven't changed, but now we are able to do all the admin side ourselves (more work for me…) meaning the charities get more mulah!
Nordoff Robbins, Teenage Cancer Trust and Childline are the beneficiaries. Not being able to do proper events has meant they've lost about 75% of their income. The kids need us now more than ever.
Please please please donate what you can on the link below. You probably haven’t seen me in over 18 months, so I’ve saved you plenty of drink money! Give it to charity instead.
Thanks in advance and hope to see you on the other side.
This fundraising page benefits the following good cause:
The Truants will ride again! September 29th, we will take on Scotland and all its undulations to raise money once more for Nordoff Robbins, Teenage Cancer Trust and Childline.
