FUNDRAISING FOR THE TRAVERS FOUNDATION

PictureAnthony Tilley is cycling to Paris on 25th July
Anthony Tilley, aged 44 and from Uppingham, is cycling from London to Paris to raise money for The Travers Foundation.
 
The Travers Foundation is a Northamptonshire-based charity which helps 13 to 30 year olds living in Northamptonshire, Rutland or Leicestershire improve their skills in sports, the creative arts and the performing arts.
 
Recent recipients of support include Olympic-hopeful Lucy Hatton, Corby Athletics' rising star long-distance runner (who's just been called up for the GB squad heading to Tbilisi for the European Youth Championships) Isaac Akers, The Corby Cube Core Dancers and Actors, local filmmaker Kayleigh O'Connor, singer and actress Meg Lyons, golfer Ryan Evans, tennis player Joe Tyler, kick-boxers Joe Watkins and Tom Symonds, singer Vicki-Louise Sherwin and Special Olympic gold medallist Chris Southwell from Oakham.
 
Anthony, who starts his journey on 25th July, said:
 
"My brother and I are cycling from London to Paris to raise money for The Travers Foundation because the foundation has really touched my heart.
 
"I have only recently been introduced to it, but it is something I truly believe in.  I hope to raise awareness and money for the foundation."
 
Terry Forsey of the Travers Foundation said:
 
"We at the Travers Foundation are very grateful to Anthony and his brother for undertaking this journey.  We just hope they have comfortable saddles!  But seriously, it's great that they have decided to choose our charity to benefit from their mammoth cycle-ride.  We wish them every success -  bonne chance et bon voyage!"
