<div>Challenge:
</div>
<div>To raise funds for Bella, Poppy &amp; Pixie’s gymnastics trip to Italy, I’ll be cycling 40 miles every day for a month in Cyprus — that’s over 1,200 miles in total!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>we’re fundraising to send three talented young gymnasts — Bella, Poppy &amp; Pixie — to an international competition in Cesenatico, Italy on 3–5 April 2026. This is a rare opportunity for them to compete internationally, gain experience, and showcase months (and years!) of hard work
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Progress updates:
</div>
<div>I’ll be logging my rides every day, sharing photos, and updating the distance covered so everyone can follow along. You’ll be able to see the effort mile by mile.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>What the money will cover (approximate, per gymnast)
</div>
<div>	•	Flights (return): £300–£320
</div>
<div>	•	Accommodation (bed &amp; 3 meals): €40 per night (hostel-style sharing)
</div>
<div>	•	Airport / local transfers: ~£80 total (Manchester + Bologna transfers)
</div>
<div>	•	Entry fee: €45
</div>
<div>All funds raised will go directly to travel, accommodation, competition entry and safe on-the-ground transport. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Why we need your help
</div>
<div>Attending this event is a big financial commitment. Estimated costs per gymnast are currently around £570, which includes flights, accommodation, transport and entry fees. We want every child who qualifies to be able to go — regardless of family circumstances — and that’s where your support makes a real difference.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>A Final Thank You ✨
</div>
<div>We will be so grateful for every donation, share, and word of encouragement. Your support doesn’t just cover costs — it gives Bella, Poppy &amp; Pixie the chance to shine on the international stage and create memories that will last a lifetime.
