My target 220 mi

Please support my Ambitious challenge!

On Sunday 28 June 2026 I will ride 220 miles (about 360 kms) in a single day from Manchester to London. A test of endurance, a journey that demands everything, and gives back more.

I am taking on the Ambitious 220 Challenge to raise funds for Ambitious about Autism, the national charity standing with autistic children and young people.

Too often autistic young people are unheard, unsupported, or shut out of opportunities. That can change. Every mile and every turn of the pedals helps create a world where autistic children and young people are accepted for who they are and given the chance to realise their ambitions.

This is more than a ride. This has purpose.

If you can, please consider donating to my page and join me in standing with autistic children and young people.
