Story

From the 5th October to the 15th October 2023, we will be driving across Sri Lanka in a glorified lawnmower, aka, a Rickshaw. 

We will be driving over 600km in 7 days across jungles, mountains and off-road villages, setting off from Negombo, an hour or so north of the capital Colombo and finishing near the Southern coast. As part of the adventure, we will be aiming to raise a minimum of £500 for the Cool Earth charity.

Cool Earth works alongside indigenous villages to halt rainforest destruction. All their partnerships are community-owned and led. Local people stand to lose the most from deforestation but the most to gain from its protection, that’s why they are the forest’s best possible custodians.

Please donate what you feel, to 3 lads from Yorkshire, losing ourselves in Sri Lanka.
