New lease of life fuels Steve’s charity motorcycle challenge

Steve Bowater had a terminal diagnosis for cancer, due to changes in treatments he has been given a new lease of life and he wanted to do something to celebrate this. Steve is doing a charity ride on his motorbike from John o' Groats to Land's End, using A and B roads only, to support Three Roses Homes in Stourbridge.

This ride will be over five days and will be approximately 1,850 miles as he will go round the UK twice. The journey will start on Monday (September 8) from Three Roses and he hopes to be back by the Friday.

Three Roses Homes supports 14 residents with different additional needs and the manager is hoping they will be able to pay for a holiday.
