It has always been my intention to make this a charity run. I fully appreciate how fortunate I am to be able to be in a position to take this trip - I'm both hoping and expecting to have an incredible time whilst I'm away, and if by doing so I can help out a group of people less fortunate than myself, then that can only be a good thing.
Over the last week I've had a couple of meetings and taken some phone calls with a local biker group up here, the WhiteKnights Emergency Volunteer Service. They run a charity which provide free of charge urgent/emergency out-of-hours transportation service of blood and medical supplies to hospitals. This obviously saves the NHS a significant amount of money which instead gets used to purchase vital equipment and improve patient care.
In order to help fund this important and unique service, I've set up a donation page for the trip which you can visit by clicking either here, or on the link up at the top of the page. I'll be documenting as much of my trip as I possibly can whilst I'm away, and knowing me I'm bound to end up in a few scrapes along the way. It'd be more than fantastic if you could help make this trip extra special and one to remember, not just for me, but for hundreds of others who benefit from the continual work of WhiteKnights EVS and the North-East chapter BloodRun.
Thank-you very much.
