Team WHY4 ride again… for Ben’s Heroes Trust.

Mark Davis (Director at Trinity Rose Chartered Surveyors) is riding again with Charters heavily sponsoring the cycle kit and fundraising efforts once more.

This year they are riding to raise money for Ben’s Heroes: http://bensheroestrust.org/

Ben’s Heroes Trust is a children’s cancer charity founded in 2011 in memory of Ben Loyns, who tragically died of cancer in December 2010 at the age of 9.

They provide financial aid and support to assist children with cancer being treated in the UK to gain access to new treatments/drugs not available on the NHS, and fund projects to improve their quality of life.

Ben’s Heroes Trust is calling on all our supporters to help 2 year-old Theo Clennon’s family to raise the £200,000 they need to get Theo to the United States for life saving Proton Beam Therapy treatment.

Please help by donating to this worthy cause. It will make the hard miles on the bike all the more worthwhile!
