Cycle Challenge inspiration

Well it's been a few weeks since I completed my challenge and I have to say, I can't wait to do the next one!

For those of you who didn't see my original post, I chose to do this challenge to raise money for Cystic Fibrosis.

Cystic Fibrosis is a life-limiting inherited condition, which affects the lungs and digestive system. Over time the lungs become increasingly damaged and may eventually stop working properly. Currently there is no cure, but symptoms can be managed with
physiotherapy and medication.

Elle Morris is from Nantwich and was my inspiration to do the challenge. She is 10 years old and suffers from Cystic Fibrosis and she is currently waiting for a double lung transplant. She was diagnosed at 15 months old and is now on oxygen full time, has four daily nebuliser treatments, is on a nightly ventilator and has two suspension medications, as well as inhalers and countless tablets.

One picture shows the amount of medication and equipment Elle needs for just one night away from home.

Despite this Elle always has a smile on her face and I think you will agree, it is a very precious smile, that melts your heart.

I would like to say a HUGE 'thank you' to everyone who has sponsored me and supported me throughout this challenge. I am extremely overwhelmed by your generosity and kindness and I really do appreciate it.

The total amount I have raised so far is £1640, which is fantastic.
