Hi, we're Nishta Soneji and Nishta Parekh, and together we are cycling to raise money for the Covid-19 crisis in India.

The situation in India is dire and critical. Thousands are dying daily. BAPS has already responded with a new 500-bed facility in Atladara, Vadodara, equipped with ICU facilities and life-saving oxygen as well as PPE for medical staff. This is in addition to the ongoing relief work in India since the pandemic began, with the distribution of hot meals, fresh vegetables, ration kits, N95 masks, and more.However, the pandemic situation is deteriorating every day and in response to this escalating situation, we have now launched an international emergency campaign, with a fundraising event to provide further critical care and support to the needy as the devastating second wave in India intensifies. 

This weekend we will be taking part in a relay cycling challenge (at 6am 😥) where a team of us aim to complete the distance from London to Delhi in 48hours (7,600km). Over lockdown, our fitness has taken a big hit so this will be a challenge for sure!

All money will be going directly to India so please support this life-saving work by donating generously if you can. Thank you!
