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.

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

Day 4 - Miami Platja

First of all, I want to thank everyone for their messages of support. It really means a lot.

When I became ill, the first thing I thought was that I cannot let people down so I have to go on whatever it takes. Thank goodness Michelle was around to talk some sense into me and insist that I get checked out by the doctor first.

The hospital were thorough with many tests and staff were very kind.

I'm just resting at home now and will give it a few days before thinking of a way to do something so as not to let down sponsors for the ride (and the charity).  

I'm thinking of doing distance in smaller chunks but in local rides over a period of time until 2700km complete.. But need to rest first. I hope that would be ok with anybody that has sponsored me. This will allow me to keep under observation and not put myself at risk

Obviously I still feel really down about it at the moment ☹️. Today I would have been arriving in Miami Platja ready for going to Barcelona tomorrow
