My story

 

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

A few months ago I was accosted in Kings Cross Station by a young lady handing out cards for the Folding Bike Challenge; a 240 mile ride from London to Paris on.... yes my Brompton ( see pictures ). Guess what ? I accepted the challenge and am off to Paris on 9 September. See the following link to the ride's website for more information -http://www.foldingbikechallenge.com/ 

As the ride is a fund raising event I decided that I would support a local charity ( I live in Lincolnshire ) hence my support for Lincolnshire & Nottinghamshire Air Ambulance; an organisation which performs a vital roll in saving lives but relies entirely on fund raising and your generosity for its continued existence. I could go on at length about the charity but their website can do this far more eloquently than I - http://www.lnaact.org.uk/  Every pound you donate goes to the charity as I have paid all my own expenses.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Thank you in advance for your generosity!

Iain
