I'm fundraising to raise money for Cancer Research UK, by cycling up the Col de la Croix de Fer in the French Alps

My Story

Thank you for visiting my Fundraising Page. I am just finishing year 7, but already my life has been touched by people having cancer. I lost my grandad and great-grandad to cancer and have family and friends who have survived cancer. It seems that everybody knows somebody who has experienced cancer in their lives. I want to help Cancer Research UK try and find more cures for cancer, so that in the future there will be more cancer survivors- and maybe NO MORE CANCER! This summer I am going to the French alps with my family, where I plan to cycle up Col de la Croix de Fer, one of the mountains which features as the highest climb in stage 12 of this years Tour de France. I have started my training, but this is going to be a really tough challenge. I will have to cycle 30km, starting at an altitude of 546 then climbing 1522m to reach a total height of 2067m. This is like 217 houses on top of each other or 346 double decker buses. It is twice the height of Snowdon! Any money you can donate will inspire me to take on this challenge; so please, sponsor me whatever you can for Cancer research UK. ‘Let’s beat Cancer sooner!’ The money I raise will help fund life-saving research and to bring forward the day when all cancers are cured. Donating through this page is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with Cancer Research UK.
