On Saturday October 4th, Robin Day and his twins were given a send-off by the Mayor of Abingdon and the Town Crier as they set off on a sponsored tandem ride in aid of Camp Mohawk — a day centre near Wargrave that supports children and young people with special needs and their families. Camp Mohawk has played a very important role for Robin and his children.
Robin cycled from Dalton Barracks to RAF Benson after learning how challenging fundraising has been this year for the charity, saying he was determined ‘to make a difference for the 700+ families who rely on the charity’s support.’
Thanks were also extended to Charlotte’s Tandems for providing the adapted bike — previously featured on this blog during Ride and Stride in September — and to the Abingdon Freewheelers, who accompanied them on the journey. Help was also given by the Fund-raising Organiser at Camp Mohawk.
