Story

Dear Family & Friends,

100 miles is a really really long way!

I didn't plan to take part this year, but I've ended up enlisting by default/accident/didn't say no quick enough - I'm not sure, but now I think I have to take part!

Please please please help energise me by donating generously! At forRefugees we're currently being depended on to meet urgent needs including:

> MEDICINES for families living in the refugee camps of northern Greece presenting mainly with severe joint pains, dental issues, minor wounds, skin disease and coughs and colds.

> a replacement VAN for meeting the daily water needs of over 800 people living in the makeshift refugee camps of northern France.

> printing READING and LEARNING resources for a mobile library depended on by hundreds of families, speaking many different first languages, in two mainland refugee camps in Greece.

Your kindness and generosity today will soon be making a difference to someone having a difficult time.

Thank you for spurring me on!

love Amber x

PS I haven't been on the bike yet this year. Help!
