Posted on 18th September 2017 at 15:00
Mondelez Community Champions Michael Huggins and Steve Davies are happy to report that they have now completed The Ride Across Britain, that is to say, they have cycled 1000 miles all the way from Lands End Cornwall up to John O'Groats in Scotland over 9 days.
Michael said "We are both very thankful for all the support you have given us. It's been an amazing experience one we will never forget."
The pair set out to raise £1,000 for each of their seven magnificent charities, with Cerebral Palsy Midlands being one of them. They have so far raised an amazing £1,115.29 for our charity alone and we are so thankful for their support.
Their fundraising doesn't end here as their giving pages will remain open until December 2017 and you can still donate here. Steve is also running in the Birmingham marathon so every support we can give him is very much needed.
Speaking to Michael on Friday 15th, his 7th of Scotland as he had just passed the Scotland Border. He said; "he had lost feeling in one of his hands and needed help cutting up his food. He said he needed a new pair of knees and was craving a cup of soup." The pair have found the journey challenging, they have been faced with all the stormy weather conditions over the last week. Cerebral Palsy Midlands are so proud to have these guys supporting our charity and being so dedicated to complete such an adventurous and tough fundraising chaellenge. Please show them your support.
