I completed 25 miles around London with my dad earlier today. It was a real challenge. Thank you all for your support for the needy people of Yemen! - Suhayb C

Thanks to everyone for donating up to now. I've reached 75% of my target! I've been practicing hard and am just back from a training ride on a wet and blustery day. About two weeks to go to the ride - please spread the word!

I will be doing a sponsored bike ride in aid of the people in Yemen. It will be about 25 miles around London (with my dad) in the half term holiday and is the furthest I've ever rode. I am 10 years old.
I am aiming to raise £1,500 for Human Relief Foundation, an organisation which is on the ground now providing much needed food and medical supplies.
The Yemen Crisis is a result of civil war which has seen a large proportion of the population pushed to the brink of starvation. According to the UN, more than 8 million people are at risk! Severe acute malnutrition is threatening the lives of almost 400,000 children under the age of five
£1,500 will pay for one food truck. Each truck will carry 1.5 tonnes of rice and flour. This won't provide what we call a "meal" but each truck has the potential to feed about 16500 people (based on 1kg rice/flour feeding 11 people).
Please support and donate generously.
