Story

On Sunday 25th June the Savant team will be cycling from our Theale office to Cavendish Square in London on Sunday 25th June. The route will be nearly 60 miles and will take in the Kennet to Avon Canel, the Thames, the Grand Union Canel and into Paddington via Little Venice, before weaving through the London traffic to Cavendish Square. We have completed the practice run (30 miles) and we are ready for the big day! 

Right now, there are 3.9 million UK children in poverty. Home isn't the loving place its supposed to be. And with the cost of living crisis spiralling out of control, theyre even more vulnerable. Tonight, children all over the UK will go to sleep hungry. Some of these children don't even have a warm bed to climb into. Action for Children make sure children have the basics - like warm clothes, hot meals and a proper bed. They offer the right mental health support, so children thrive. And provide protection and recovery to child victims of abuse and neglect.Please help me raise vital funds to help a vulnerable child's dreams of a safe and happy childhood come true. £40 could pay for gas and electricity for a family for a week £50 could buy clothes and shoes for a child £100 could provide a child with a bed £200 could provide a family with a cooker Thank you.
