For those of you that don’t know me my name is Paul Ainsworth, I’m 55 years old and this November I am taking on the Cycle Cuba Challenge, a 355km cycle around western Cuba.

In November 2016 I was 21st 9lbs and a heart attack or stroke just waiting  to happen, with help and support from slimming world, friends and family a lot of self determination, will power and a burning desire to change my life around I now weigh 13st 6lbs.

As part of the Cuba Solidarity Campaign Cycle Cuba Challenge Team I would love to be a part of helping young Cuban children with physical disabilities become the best they can possible be and help them to have a better quality of life
