Rosemary's Two Wheels for Meals Cycle Challenge takes place in June this year, with Rosemary cycling almost 450 miles from the iconic Land's End to the White Cliffs of Dover, all whilst raising vital funds for food poverty charities.
Funds raised through donations and auctions are set to be distributed by Hendy Foundation to food poverty charities such as food banks, food pantries and food recycling organisations.
Food poverty in the UK has increased dramatically over the past few years, particularly due to the cost of living crisis; with over 11% of the UK population in households experiencing food poverty; including 17% of children (Source: GOV.UK Sept 2024).
Rosemary is passionate about food, and these shocking statistics are the reason why Rosemary is raising vital funds to directly help those families and children suffering from food poverty.
Her cycle challenge will take her from Land's End, across picturesque Dartmoor, through Dorset, Salisbury, Winchester and across the South Downs, into her home town of Royal Tunbridge Wells and finally to her destination of the White Cliffs of Dover. Rosemary will be stopping off on route to meet her supporters and offer some cookery demonstrations.
Thanks to all the event sponsors who have made this event possible.
