Pancreatic Cancer UK fundraising page

Thanks for taking the time to visit the Pancreatic Cancer UK Fundraising page.

My brothers Paul, Adam and I thought it would be great sibling bonding to get on our bikes and cycle LEJoG- Land’s End to John o’Groats- well we're not getting any younger, and It seemed like a good idea at the time!!

As you will know, it is an iconic long-distance cycle ride spanning the length of mainland UK from the gorgeous beaches of Cornwall to the stunning countryside of northern Scotland.


We'll be starting out Sat 20th July and hopefully home by Sun 4th Aug, very kindly supported by friend Danny driving the motor home. We'll be keeping off major roads, and at a pace that is hopefully enjoyable,   following the longer 1189miles Sustrans route via greenways, cycle paths and country roads, which runs on the National Cycle Network for over three-quarters of its length.

Having been encouraged by a number of friends to do sponsorship, I thought I would ride in memory of my Dad who died aged 74 in 2001 from Pancreatic Cancer (My brothers are raising for other charities).

So a BIG thank you for anything you are able to contribute and this being a motivator when the going gets tough.

Pancreatic cancer is tough to diagnose, tough to treat and tough to research. Please support me and help make a difference to pancreatic cancer.

Together we can transform the future and increase awareness.

My donations could fund...

15 hours with a nurse on our Support Line

or

6 hours of early diagnosis research
