£1 a lap for Weston Beach race in Aid of CF

Post by JohnPannell »

My uncle suffers from cystic Fibrosis. Cystic fibrosis is an inherited disease caused by a faulty gene. This gene controls the movement of salt and water in and out of your cells, so the lungs and digestive system become clogged with mucus, making it hard to breathe and digest food. This affects 10,000 people in the UK!
So we (the Pannell family) were asked to help raise £50,000 for the 50K challenge set for CF as my uncle has amazingly turned 50! more info here - http://www.chandlersbs.co.uk/news/title/50k-challenge

So i thought as me and Faye Barnes are racing the weston super-mare beach race, what a perfect way to raise money aswell as ride something which is that fun!
Now i no this wont affect some people, or wont know anyone that is affected by this, but your money will be able to help save lives!!
So if anyone is willing to sponsor £1 a lap of the weston beach race track, please either let me know on here, or will be carrying a sponsor form to each races.. :thumb:

thanks for reading!
