London to Paris Bike ride

2nd June 2010

£1,365.47
raised so far

"A few years ago, a classmate and friend of mine passed away after a long battle with cancer. She was much too young to have been claimed by such a terrible disease.

I've often thought about how I could help prevent this kind of tragedy from happening again. That is why I've decided to participate in this year's charity bike ride from London to Paris.

The money that I will be raising will go directly to World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF UK), who aim to prevent cancer by funding cutting-edge scientific research into this disease.

My goal is to raise £1,300 for WCRF UK and I hope you can help me do this.

Thanks”
