Story

We are a bunch of motorbike riders who are planning to ride from the busy streets of London, up to the calming Scottish Highlands and then back again (4th to 12th June) - that's around 1500 miles come rain or shine! Please support us by joining us at various fundraising events we will be hosting on our route, or just tag along for a ride as we tour the UK. We will appreciate it very much if you can chuck in a few quid on our page.

Our fundraiser is created to help the children of Palestine - 100% of what we receive will go towards our chosen charity organisation MECA, who are currently working in Palestine to support the children and their families. Below are a few examples of the amazing work they have carried out to date:

2,782 Food Parcels distributed to families all over Gaza to date. Though the main roads in Gaza have all been bombed and destroyed, cutting off each city from the rest, our local partners have managed to reach families from Beit Lahia in the north to Rafah in the south with essential food supplies.

97% of Water in Gaza is unfit for human consumption. MECA have provided thousands of bottles of water to displaced families across 20 schools in the Gaza area, while a more long-term solution can be found.

MECA partners have distributed Hygiene Supplies (soap, diapers, toothbrushes, faminine hygiene) to 28 shelters in northern Gaza and Gaza city areas.

MECA sent funds to Al-Awda Hospital located in Jabalia, in northern Gaza, to purchase essential Medical Aid for their emergency room and surgical theater. 50% of all injuries from have been in northern Gaza and the hospital are running low on supplies.

Your contribution will help many Palestinian families that are currently suffering. Charity of all intentions accepted.

Thank you once again, stay safe!
