We have partnered with Human Appeal to raise funds for the Freedom50 Bangladesh Charity Bike Ride, which will be taking place from 30th January 2023 to 11 February 2023.

The ride will start in Dhaka and finish in Sylhet. Along the 400km route we will be stopping at Tangail, Sarishabari in Jamalpur, Mymensingh, Mohanganj, Sunamganj and finishing with a grand finale in Sylhet.

We will be raising funds to build an eco school in Bangladesh.

Helping children to stay safe and giving them access to education and support to grow safely. Providing them with the opportunity to a brighter future and helping to lift them out of poverty.

Our passionate and dedicated team of cyclists will personally be cycling from Dhaka to Sylhet. We are hopeful that you will support me to raise as much funds as possible to help the vulnerable children of Bangladesh.

Please donate what you can and help change the life of a child. Every child has the right to a childhood.

Freedom50 Is a national initiative with individuals and organisations that have come together to form a collective to celebrate 50 years of Bangladesh’s independence. Through Freedom 50, key events that led to the independence of Bangladesh in 1971 will be recognised together with the role that British Bangladeshis played in the UK. This four day European bike ride is one of many events to help raise awareness of global climate challenges. The bike ride will raise awareness of the impact of global warming amongst the UK’s British Bangladeshi and other communities and highlight the health benefits of cycling. Health inequalities have disproportionately impacted the Bangladeshi community, and during Covid 19 this was further exacerbated. Last year’s national bike ride encouraged more Bangladeshi people to use their bikes for exercise and commuting. We aim to build on this momentum and encourage more people to make small changes that make an impact on climate change.
