Hello and Welcome to my Blog

Hiya

Let me start off by telling you a bit about myself and "Pedalling for Pounds". My name is Laura Shave, I work for British Airways and in April 2009 I will be cycling from London to Glasgow...yes London to Glasgow... over 400 miles, to raise money for Dreamflight.

Dreamflight was set up by two BA cabin crew members over twenty years ago and every year takes 192 terminally ill and or seriously disabled children on a holiday of lifetime to Orlando, Florida.

I have been fortunate enough to go on the Dreamflight as a Non-Medical Escort on three separate occasions and have witnessed the effect that the trip has on the children.

That's why I decided to set myself this crazy challenge, to help raise funds so that Dreamflight can continue to have a positive impact on the lives of some truly inspirational young people.

Over the coming weeks and months I'll keep you updated with my progress - in the mean time though...Thanks for your support!
