This weekend, Russell Sykes took on the 66km black grade MTB Mills & Moors cycling challenge (which involves climbing 1200m of hills around Halifax and Calderdale) to raise funds for Sunshine & Smiles.
He has raised over £720 for us so far - thank you so much, Russell. We hope your legs recover quickly!
