Thank you for visiting our fundraising page.
BAPS Swaminarayan Sanstha in Leicester has organised a 500-mile sponsored Cycle Challenge on Saturday 30 August 2008 at St Margaret's Pastures.
This is a two-fold campaign to propel health and fitness awareness within the young Asian community and raise funds towards sports equipment and recreational activities for the new Mandir & cultural complex. The young women of BAPS, all aged between 14 and 23, aim to collectively cycle 500 miles to raise funds.
Supporting the event is CTC, the UK's National Cyclists' Organisation, established since 1878. The organisation has kindly donated bicycles, helmets, mile counters and a great deal of advice and support to this event and the BAPS organisation.
The day of the cycle challenge will have a strong focus on health awareness; this will include stalls from charities such as Diabetes , The British Heart Foundation and Breast Cancer, and Asthma UK.
So please support by donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: BAPS Swaminarayan Sanstha gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.
So please sponsor us!
