Couch to Cairo: The BIG 4-0 and 3880 km to go!

In 2026, I hit the BIG 4-0. Some people throw a party... I’m throwing myself into CYCLING.

I’m dusting off my exercise bike and cycling the distance from my couch to Cairo! That’s 3880 km, in aid of four incredible charities.

If you know me, you'll know this isn’t going to be easy. I don't have an active lifestyle, and I may have injured myself trying the bike out!

Keep me pedaling on this epic cycle, and support the amazing work of these four charities:

1. OCD Action
2. Action on Post Partum Psychosis
3. The Migraine Trust
4. TLC: Talk Listen Change

Thank you SO MUCH for any support you can give!

I’ll appreciate it when things get tough! Let’s face it, they will!
