This September I'll be taking on a sponsored bike ride along the Trans Pennine Trail, which runs from Southport to Hull, from Friday 25th September to Monday 28th September, to raise money for The Florrie.

For over 130 years, The Florrie has been at the heart of our community, providing a welcoming place where people can come together. Today, it supports local people through youth activities, creative and cultural programmes, health and wellbeing sessions, free community support, food provision, and safe spaces where everyone can feel connected and supported.

I'm taking on this challenge because I know how important The Florrie is to so many people. Every pound raised will help it continue delivering these vital services, supporting individuals and families who rely on them every week, and ensuring it can continue responding to the growing needs of our community.

If you're able to support me, no matter how big or small the donation, I'd be incredibly grateful. Your generosity will make a real difference and help The Florrie continue changing lives for years to come.
