Story

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page.

On 7th April 2006 we reached Cape Town after 29,169km on the road and some 615 days after leaving the UK.  More info at www.africabybike.org.

The expedition was in support of  Link Community Development, a charity working to improve education for children in Ghana, Uganda and South Africa and give them a chance to escape the poverty into which they were born. All donations will go directly to the charity and not towards funding the expedition itself.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Link Community Development will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you. So please sponsor us now! And remember:

£10 could buy a desk for a child who now studies on the floor
£25 could pay for education support workers to visit 5 schools
£100 could train 10 teachers at an HIV / AIDS workshop
£250 sponsors an entire school for one year

Thank you for your support.
Anna & Luke
