Barry Milchem, Kids Inspire Ambassador and Volunteer first got involved when cycling in aid of Kids Inspire in a fundraising challenge, after that he generously gifted his time to organise the first ever ‘Kids Inspire local’ cycle ride in 2021. Barry said: “The reason I got involved with Kids Inspire is because I could see what the increasing pressures on families and family life, and what I see Kids Inspire doing is fulfilling a gap that can’t be filled in schools or in the home, it bridges something. The result is our young people coming out better, stronger, and importantly ready to fulfill their ambitions for life.”
To take part register by visiting our website www.kidsinspire.org.uk. Registration is open until mid-August, and we encourage participants to start their fundraising efforts early, as every pound raised will directly impact the lives of those the charity supports.
