Rita has now successfully completed her incredible London to Paris cycling challenge in support of Stargardt’s Connected, finishing her journey between the 10th and 14th of June, and raising an incredible £1500.
What began as an ambitious fundraising ride of over 300 miles has been an inspiring achievement from start to finish. From London, through Kent, across into France, Rita crossed the finish line at the Eiffel Tower in Paris after four unforgettable days on the road.
With a deeply personal connection to Stargardt’s Connected and its mission, Rita’s dedication has helped raise vital awareness and support for families affected by Stargardt’s, while contributing directly to our ongoing work to support research and seek a cure.
We are so grateful for her determination, strength, and generosity, and to everyone who donated and supported her along the way.
