On June 10th, myself and Joe Harris set off on our bikes from London 2 Paris for a 300 mile challenge to raise money for two important charities which will get a 50/50 split of our combined totals.
- The Diabetes Centre at Darent Valley Hospital my Lady Captains Charity
and
- Maidstone Hospital Oncology Unit via Macmillan - I know you all know people supported here.
Joe has named his challenge 'Harris 2 Paris' a cool tag name!, whilst I am simply 'Team WMGC' - there are spaces if you would like to join us!
Training is under way and the important countdown has begun.......
We hope you can support the challenge. Fund-raising is under way via Virginmoneygiving. Here are links to our pages:

Alternatively, we will also have forms posted soon at the club.
We hope to provide some updates of our adventure between now and then so you can chart our progress and more importantly feel a part of it.
We started fundraising last Thursday and are already blown away by people's generosity - £1500 so far excluding gift aid! Lesley has already moaned that I have no photo on my page so I will work to fix that - she thinks it will encourage more donations - me I am not so sure!!
From both of us - thanks in advance.
Georgina
