Benji Meeks is currently cycling from John O’Groats to Lands End (That’s 1000 miles in 14 days). He has to be back for a wedding! He is aiming to raise £1 per mile. All the money raised will be going to our charity which will be an amazing £1000.

Benji has also supported us by giving a loving home to 3 of our piggies,2 goats and poultry. When we took Gemma the horse on a few years ago he sent 5 joiners from Meeks Joinery round to help build her a stable at short notice and they gave their valuable time and skills for free.

Please sponsor him to do this amazing event.

Ben is also cycling and raising money for Make a Wish Foundation.
