Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

Imagine Ewan McGregor and Charley Boorman's expedition long way down, well ours is pretty much the same but our TV series will be called a long way up!!  And we are not using motorbikes, we are using pedal power so there is a good chance our expedition is going to be just as hard!!

14 of us will embark on an epic journey covering 110 miles in 2 days, our route takes us west out of London past Regents park and the famous Madame Tussaud's Museum.  We head north out towards Edgeware and take in Watford, Hemel and Aylesbury before coming to rest at the end of day 1 in Buckingham.

Day 2 will commence with a Little Chef Olympic breakfast, before the short (50 miles) ride into coventry via Banbury and Southam

It is all in aid of a fantastic cause, i think we will have fun! maybe a bit saddle sore at the end!  Oh well that what they invented vaseline for!

Wish us luck and don't forget to sponsor us.

We do expect a grand finale as we enter north view!

 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - we raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

What your donation can privide:

£1 could provide nine desperately poor street kids in Tanzania with the school books they need to get an education and work towards a far brighter future.


£2 could feed a child orphaned by HIV/AIDS in Kenya for one day. With no parents to clothe and feed them, many orphans face extreme poverty and hardship.


£5 could pay for a mosquito net in Africa which protects a mother and her baby from contracting
life-threatening malaria while they sleep.


£10 could pay for a volunteer to visit an older person who lives on their own in the UK, so they have someone to turn to – which helps them feel less alone.


£25 could pay for a child in the UK who cares for a sick family member to spend a couple of hours with a specialist support worker, so they have someone to talk to about the pressures they face.

So please dig deep and donate now.
