Alan’s Challenge

Why Alan’s Challenge? Alan set himself his challenge to help those in our community who due to “Covid” restrictions, are finding life increasingly desperate, to simply survive. Food banks are more and more essential, befriending services for the lonely, Transportation for those needing to attend hospital appointments, Etc..

Alan decided he would go that extra mile to hopefully inspire people. He set himself a target , to try and raise £25.000 to help two local organisations who are ‘on the front line’ in helping during this crisis , Connex (previously known as the ‘Volunteer Bureau’) and ‘Street by Street’ who go out and call on those in need to see what help is needed.

His actual challenge, although aged 75 years, is to Cycle down the 19 most difficult mountain cycle tracks in Derbyshire, a challenge that would take some weeks to achieve, and a lot of stamina.

Alan has already been supported by some Local Firms and individuals, but has a long way to go to reach his target, he is putting his life on the line, will you help, please every bit counts.
