I'm cycling miles to change young lives from Buckingham Palace to Windsor Castle
On Sunday 6th October, I will be taking part in Palace to Palace and cycling 45 or 90 miles from Buckingham Palace to Windsor Castle and raising fund for the King’s Trust.
The King's Trust has tailored programmes and provides long-term support give young people the practical skills and emotional resilience to pick themselves back up and create their own positive futures.
The recent Class of Covid report reveals almost half of young people in the UK (49%) feel anxious about their future on a daily basis, with 59% agreeing it feels frightening for their generation. Findings suggest the impact of the pandemic and now a cost-of-living crisis is taking its toll on young people, as 45% agree anxiety around recent political and economic events affects them daily. More than a third (35%) feel their life is spiralling out of control, and for those from lower income backgrounds, this increases to 41%.
Please help me to support The King's Trust by sponsoring my Palace to Palace cycle ride and sharing my page. Just a £20 donation could provide a young person with an experienced youth worker for an hour, building their confidence, resilience and motivation during this time.

Why did I donate £14.97? Well, that's how much money you saved on fuel by cycling instead of driving added to the cost to Carbon offset your breathing during race. To drive those 90km in my car that does 10.33 km/L round a city, with unleaded fuel it'd cost £12.37 You'll be cycling average pace of 30km/h (or else!), you'll burn approximately 1,800kcal, factor in the additional air resistance from the wide-screen takes us to about 2,100kcal - so you'll produce about 0.74kg of c02. Cheapest Carbon offset I could find was £2.60 which offsets 333kg of c02 by funding 1/2,100,000th of the cost to build and maintain a wind turbine in Thailand.
