Cycle Safari 2026 in Aid of the Marie Keating Foundation

Thank you so much for visiting my fundraising page. This year, I’m taking on the Tour de Force Charity Cycle 2026, an extraordinary multi‑day challenge across Africa, all in support of the Marie Keating Foundation.

This event brings together a dedicated group of riders who are pushing themselves physically and mentally to raise vital funds for cancer awareness, prevention, and support services. Every kilometre we cycle helps the Foundation continue its mission of ensuring that people affected by cancer receive the information, comfort, and care they deserve.

The route will take us through some of the most stunning and demanding landscapes in Africa — from vibrant towns and rural communities to challenging climbs and long, open stretches of road. It’s a journey that will test endurance, resilience, and teamwork, and I’m proud to be part of it.

Your support means more than you know. By sponsoring my ride, you’re helping to fund life‑changing programmes that provide education, early detection awareness, and compassionate support for individuals and families facing cancer. Every donation, big or small, makes a real difference.

If you can, please consider sponsoring my challenge. And if you’d like to help even more, feel free to share this page with friends, family, or colleagues. Together, we can make a meaningful impact.

Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and encouragement. It truly keeps me going.
