Hi,
Thank you for visiting my sponsorship page. Click on my photos to the right for a close up view!
On Saturday 25 July I completed the challenge of a lifetime having cycled over 500 kilometres (324 miles actually) from London to Paris. It was an absolutely stunning experience! My ride was a great way to combine celebrating my recovery from a serious cycling accident in 2005, my 50th Birthday this year and to raise money for Action Medical Research, a great charity that funds pioneering medical research.
For nearly 60 years it has been involved with numerous breakthroughs such as ultrasound in pregnancy, the polio vaccine and the hip replacement operation.
They fund many research projects each year which will lead to a healthier future for everyone. They are currently campaigning for the UK Government to put more money into research in to premature birth. Action Medical Research have funded over £4 million of research in this area but more research is required to understand why this remains the biggest killer of under ones.
With your help we can achieve even more medical breakthroughs.
Please tick the Gift Aid box if you are a UK tax payer as the UK Government will then give an additional 25% on the money that I have raised.
Thanks again.
Nigel
