 RAISE POUNDS BY LOSING POUNDS!

Pedal against poverty

On 11 July 2020, The Road to Parity Founder, Jonathan Hill, embarked on a solo, unsupported mountain bike challenge from Land's End to John O'Groats to mark the launch of the charity's donation channels. Below is the 24-day, 932-mile story in pictures. A daily diary was kept on Facebook and a summary is in the news section. A total of £2,356 was raised.

You too can raise money for us through your favourite activity - whether it be cycling, running, swimming, walking or golf. It could be something on your own, in a group, part of a wider event, or perhaps during a holiday. A challenge doesn't have to be outdoors and physical. Think board games, singing, baking, or even a coffee morning! If you have an idea you'd like to discuss, please email steps@theroadtoparity.org.
