Story

Thank you for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I’ll be cycling solo from London to Brighton on Saturday 28th September 2024 to mark the 30th birthday year of Sussex-based charity Gatwick Detainees Welfare Group. You can find out more about GDWG at https://www.gdwg.org.uk/who-we-are

Please help me raise much needed funds to support their important work improving the welfare and well-being of people during and after their time held in indefinite immigration detention, by offering friendship and support and advocating for fair treatment.

Your donation will be used to fund phone credit for detained people in order for them to contact their family, community and support networks including staying in touch with their lawyers. Every £10 phone credit given out once a month to a detained person is a lifeline.

You can find out about Refugee Tales, GDWG's walking and storytelling project that calls for a future without immigration detention at www.refugeetales.org

You can find out how I'm progressing with my preparation for the ride through my regular blog posts further down the page.

Thank you very much for considering supporting this cause. I appreciate your support for GDWG.
