A Lancaster cyclist has raised just over £2,900 after riding between two of the UK's best-known castles.
Gillian Sheath completed a 500 mile castle-to-castle challenge from Lancaster Castle to Cardiff Castle, then back home.
Gillian's Justgiving page has, at time of writing, raised £2,906.
The retired occupational therapist chose to raise funds for Macmillan Cancer Support after a friend's husband died of cancer, aged 42.
Over the past two years she has cycled solo to Lands End and raised £2800 for the Alzheimer’s Society, then pedalled solo to Beach Head in Sussex in aid of The Samaritans, again raising £2800.
You can find Gillian's fundraising page here. The page is open until September 30.
