This summer, we are cycling from Glasgow to Dumfries to raise money for Mossburn Community Farm. This is going to be as much off-road riding as we can and will see us cover 160km and climb nearly 3000m.
Mossburn Community Farm provides sanctuary for animals in need, whether they have been neglected, abandoned or their owners can no longer care for them. They give loving care to around 100 animals at any time, in the beautiful Dumfries countryside. Their team of staff and dedicated volunteers ensure that the well-being of their animals is of the highest importance at all times. Mossburn also provides animal assisted therapy which gives a wide range of people many benefits, including helping with anxiety, giving comfort, reducing loneliness and increasing mental stimulation. Learn more about their work and meet some of the animals here.
Mossburn is free to visit and as a community resource this is incredible. Time spent with animals is incredible for mental health. However, looking after the residents is not cheap with regular vets bills and the costs of feeding being especially high at the moment - an average month sees around £1000 being spend on feed bills alone. Please do support this special place and better yet, go and visit and experience it for yourself.
One of the riders will match fund the highest donation up to £300. We are being supported in this ride by the fantastic Vegan Wheels and Billy Bilsland Cycles - a huge thank you for their support and for being such great people.
