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.
