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 Prince’s Trust.

The Prince'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 Prince'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.

Last local bike ride this morning, ready for the big one on Sunday. Please sponsor, thank you for your donations, much appreciated. Every contribution makes a difference.

£5 could cover the cost of a bus ticket for a young person to attend their first job interview, your donation could help unlock an inspiring career.

£10 could fund a call to our helpline, enabling a vulnerable young person to gain the critical advice they need.

£15 could contribute towards our work in schools, equipping a classroom with the right tools to help young people re-engage with learning.

£20 could provide a young person with an experienced youth worker for an hour, building their confidence, resilience, and motivation during this time.

£30 could provide a young person with the vital gift of a mentor to provide guidance and support during this challenging time.
