I am cycling 1650 miles (2650 km) in 15 days from Canada to Mexico to raise money for Alzheimer’s Research UK and Glasgow University Boat Club.
My grandpa has been suffering from Alzheimer’s disease for several years and seeing his struggle has inspired me to raise money to help find a cure. It is so widespread and seen as an inevitability for some in old age but we have the power to turn the tide on what is currently a losing battle for so many sufferers. 70% of all funds raised will go directly to ARUK to help fund their research into curing the disease.
Glasgow University Boat Club has been such an important part of my life in recent years that I wouldn’t be capable of doing this challenge without the support and drive it has given me. I want to give back to the organisation that has helped build me up so it can continue to do the same for others. The program’s funding has recently been significantly reduced so it is all the more important to me to do what I can to keep it alive.
Money donated to GUBC will help in buying new equipment and delivering a high quality coaching program to develop young athletes.
All funds raised will go directly to these organisations in a 70/30 split. All costs involved in the trip are paid for by me.
Please help me fight the good fight my donating whatever your coin purse can spare <3
P.S. This site does accept donations in any currency. Since the charities are both UK based all funds will be converted into GBP when transferred to them.
