My Dad, the one and only Jim Kimber, is cycling 1000km from Payhembury, Devon, to the COP26 UN Climate Change Conference in Glasgow in aid of World Land Trust (WLT). 

Always one to push and challenge himself, dad will be riding a lengthy route totalling approximately 1,000km. Beginning on Tuesday 5th October, over 10 days he will be cycling via Bristol, Reading, Cambridge, Nottingham and Manchester to stay with family and friends along the way. 

I am so proud of dad's perseverance and resilience, and also of the charity he has chosen to fundraise for. With the climate crisis now more urgent than ever, dad has chosen to fundraise for an environmental charity which is a cause he feels very passionately about. 

WLT is a conservation charity that protects the world's most threatened and biologically significant habitats. Their current campaign is to save Laguna Grande, the tropical home of more than 700 species and a major carbon sink of Caribbean Guatemala. This is an area that has already lost 80% of its forest but WLT will make sure the destruction doesn't go any further.

Between Wednesday 6 and Tuesday 19 October 2021 (both days included), any donations made to his fundraiser will be doubled as part of WLT's Big Match Fortnight! 

If you wish to support him, any donations will be hugely appreciated and will spur him on through long, tiring days and help keep the peddles turning!
