Story
Myself, my brother Tom, and my dad will be partaking in The Rickshaw Run in September 2024. The two week long event takes place in India, with the goal being to drive a very ill equipt and not even slightly up for the task rickshaw from Leh in the north, over the Himilayas to Jaisalmur, in the Rajasthani Desert.
We're doing this in order to raise money for three separate charities.
1. Cool Earth - The official sponsored charity of The Rickshaw Run who do excellent work protecting the rainforests of the world.
2. Cancer Research UK - I think we've all had someone in our lives affected by cancer, ours is no different. Cancer Research UK is the world's leading charity at the forefront of life saving research and innovation.
3. - No Barriers Zimbabwe - A charity set up in North Eastern Zimbabwe, working closely with local communities to assist children in overcoming barriers to education.
Our first 500 pounds will be pledged to Cool Earth, and any further donations split between Cancer UK and No Barriers Zimbabwe. We are sure to make absolute fools of ourselves in the name of fundraising, and any donations big or small are enormously appreciated.
