Day 2

“Always a little further” - 16Km round trip to my local beach

Day 1, Week 1

A ride around my hometown - ordered some combat stress wristbands.

I'm taking part in the Combat Stress CycleSeptember challenge!

This year I will be taking on CycleSeptember and cycling 250 kilometers to raise vital funds for life-changing mental health treatment for veterans. I’ve done a few events for the ABF and Combat Stress, this is my first cycling challenge.

I’ve got close friends who have been supported by combat stress services, so I know the money we raise will go where it is needed, not saved and held back like many other charities.

Combat Stress is the UK's leading charity for veterans' mental health. For over a century, they've helped former servicemen and women deal with issues like trauma, anxiety, depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. Today, they provide support to veterans from every service and every conflict.

I’m taking vital steps towards ensuring veterans can get the support they need.

Thank you so much for your support.
