Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>Well this event has been 3 years in the planning (&amp; I know that many of you probably thought I would never actually get around to doing it!) but I am going to cycle 200km in a day on Sunday 20th May 2012. I have set a circular route of 100km which goes from Truro, Stithians, Helston, Hayle, Portreath, St Agnes &amp; back to Truro &amp; I will cycle this twice over. Sam &amp; kids will be at various stop points en route to provide refreshments &amp; encouragement!</p> <p>My chosen charity, &amp; the reason for doing this cycle, is to raise as much money as possible for the Treliske Neonatal unit (one of the 3 hospitals that helped to care for our children) Most of you already know that our precious triplets, Harry,Martha &amp; Evie were born extremely premature at just 26 weeks gestation (13 weeks premature) Their odds of survival did not swing in their favour, let alone the possibility of ever bringing them home with no long lasting effects but miracles can happen...and 3 years on and here we are to tell the tale with 3 healthy &amp; beautiful children.</p> <p>Treliske neonatal unit has 4 nurseries and can care for up to 22 babies at any time. They are open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year &amp; they never know what to expect through their door.</p> <p>They are currently in need of hot cots, which each cost approx &pound;300, which is why we have set an ambitious target of &pound;1000 as we would like to purchase 3 hot cots (one for each of our children)</p> <p>We appreciate that for many of you, like us, your money can only go so far each month but we would ask to please give anything you can as every &pound; donated will help.</p> <p>Please keep updated with my training progress &amp; to see how the fundraising is going via our Facebook Neonatal Fundraising page.</p> <p>Many many thanks!</p> <p>Andrew, Sam, Harry,Martha &amp; Evie</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving &ndash; they&rsquo;ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they&rsquo;ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it&rsquo;s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p>
