Our Journey

In 2015, we completed a journey between Orihuela court and London Royal Court of Justice on foot. 44 marathons in 44 days with the hope of raising awareness of parental child abduction and parental alienation and also, on a very personal level, to show my daughter that I would travel the world for
her.

On that occasion, we raised funds for the Reunite
International Child Abduction Centre Charity

This time, with our cycle, as well as having another attempt at raising awareness of these issues, we hope to help to raise funds for another charity Parental Alienation Awareness (1187738) who aim to raise awareness, educate, & campaign against this form of child abuse that needlessly disconnects children, parents, & their extended families.

This, many of you know, I can directly relate to...

We are hoping to raise £2000 to help with publishing and distribution costs in the production of parental alienation awareness brochures.

The link for donating to this charity is :

I understand the covid situation has caused financial hardship for many.. Charities like this are also finding these times extremely testing.

If you cant help financially, thats ok. But could I ask that you share my JustGiving page link so others can help to support this worthy charity?

Thanks all xx

Overall Schedule and Route Plan

 Hi all

My overall schedule & route plan is shown in the table below. If I/we are passing near you, then please let me know. It would be lovely to stop briefly to say hi, have a coffee/snack.



If you are feeling extra supportive, why not volunteer to be my co-rider for a section of the ride where I dont have a co-rider listed. I would LOVE to get more parents and supporters involved particularly in the UK stages. Even a few km would be great !!!

My route is on here but it is subject to slight change depending on what happens (eg.. might have to divert slightly to meet people and if any accomodation change is needed) but will stick to the plan as much as possible.

I have also added to Komoot where I will manage any changes that might be necessary
