Bike Riding for a Cause Close to My nans Heart: Supporting Motability Foundation

On May 31st 2025, I’ll be embarking on a fundraising bike ride for a cause that holds deep personal meaning. Over 20 years ago, my beloved nan suffered a brain hemorrhage, which left her unable to use the left side of her body. Despite the immense challenges she faced, she always spoke highly of the incredible support she received from the Motability Foundation.Their dedication and care made a world of difference in her life, helping her regain some independence and maintain her dignity during difficult times.

Sadly, my nan is no longer with us, and passed away on the 24th September 2024 but her praise for this foundation has stayed with me. In her memory, I’m raising funds for the foundation that gave her so much when she needed it most. Your donations will go directly to helping others like my nan, giving them the tools and support to navigate life after motability challenges.

Please join me in honoring her legacy by supporting this incredible cause. Every pound makes a difference, and together, we can help more people regain their freedom and independence.

Thank you for your generosity and for helping to keep my nan’s memory alive through this ride.
