Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

As one of the organisers of YuCycle I've chosen to ride the 100km route on 7 June 2015.  You can choose to join in 100km too or to cycle 50km or 25km if that better suits your fitness.  Along with other members of staff, students and alumni we want to make a difference to the opportunities available to students at our University. 

YuCycle aims to raise funds to support our Achieving Excellence Bursary Appeal which enables students from lower income families to get the most out of their time at York, supporting them financially as they undertake their degree.  Currently we can only award a bursary to one in every four students who need it and with your help we can ensure that support is there for more students.

In addition this year we will also support students with sporting talent to develop their potential.  Our Sports Scholarship scheme gives modest grants to pay for training, equipment and competition entry  - all of which are difficult to fund on a student loan.
