MapAction

Sarah Knight is raising money for MapAction
“Land's End to John O'Groats Cycle”

on 7 May 2012

Donations cannot currently be made to this page
MapAction believes that applying geospatial expertise to humanitarian situations can greatly improve outcomes for the people affected. Global humanitarian needs outstrip resources. Expert geospatial and data analysis can help stretch those resources for maximum impact. Many professionals want to donate their energy and skills to help. MapAction is the bridge which enables them to do so effectively. We are a non-profit organisation that collaborates with partners around the world to help anticipate, prepare for and respond to humanitarian emergencies. We strive to ensure governments, regional and local disaster management agencies and humanitarian responders have access to the information and analysis that they need to make key decisions, at the right times, to save lives and alleviate suffering. We are a team of around 100 people, 75% of them expert volunteers, plus a small roster of standby consultants. Combining the passion of volunteerism with the rigour and reliability of professional standards, the ‘MapAction spirit’ is something we work hard to maintain and the willingness of our team to go the extra mile is often fed back to us.

Story

 

Welcome and thank you for visiting our fundraising page!!  We are Sarah Nelson, Celia Austin and Sarah Knight and together we are about to do unspeakable things to our undercarriages.  Yes, we are cycling from Land's End to John O'Groats!!

We will start on 26th August 2012 and are aiming for 2 weeks. This gives us plenty of time to cycle, faff, eat Haribo, apply lube (on both bike and human) and generally feel the burn!

We are raising money for 3 great charities: MapAction, Macmillan Cancer Support and Surrey Care Trust.  You have chosen to donate to MapAction! Thank you!!
