You get two free tickets to the raffle ( one extra instead of the scone ! ) ; I really appreciate you getting behind this cause - every penny Focus gets is ring fenced to build a Family apartment in their development in St Johns Lane Dublin 8. The response we have had to date has been so good that I really believe we will make our target by Christmas . Regards John

This is a very worthy cause and one that I am very happy to support. I will be there on the 9th December.
I would love to see as many Orwell members join us on the cycle to Bray. A free coffee and your chance to take one family out of homelessness.

Details of: leaders and alternative routes will be posted, for this Focus Ireland charity spin, early next week.
The coffee shop/stop in Bray will be open from 10:30 to 12:00. Hopefully this gives you enough time have a short or longer spin. You can, if you wish, just drive down for the free: coffee, buns and raffle.
Cheers,
Leonard

I cycle past a young man living in a tent nearly every day close to where I live. A reminder of how unequal our society is.
Great idea for a great charity.
