Story

<p><span style="font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: small;"> </span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Welcome to Binal&rsquo;s and Nikesh&rsquo;s <strong>100km walk from London to Brighton</strong> fundraising page! Our walk is in memory of our uncle <strong>Shailesh Patel</strong> who sadly passed away last year. He was extremely selfless and generous in nature, going out of his way to actively contribute to organisations such as Sansaar and Shishukunj in central roles. For this reason we are going to be raising money for Pratham UK. </span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;">Pratham provides educational programmes for children in India, aiming to raise literacy and the standard of schooling given to them. It is one of the largest and most successful charities in India, having won an array of awards for its life-changing work.</span></span></p> <p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;" class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></span></p> <p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;" class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: small;">Instead of completing an easy task, a team of two (Binal &amp; Nikesh) have set ourselves the mammoth challenge of <strong>walking 100km from London to Brighton in under 24 hours</strong>. We are not doing it as part of any organised group, so Binal and the family have organised the entire event, all the way down to the smallest detail. We have been training hard and are ready for the walk on Saturday 25</span><sup><span style="font-size: x-small;">th</span></sup><span style="font-size: small;"> June. Through our sweat (and painful blisters) we are hoping to raise as much as possible for this great cause.</span></span></p> <p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;" class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></span></p> <p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;" class="MsoNoSpacing"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="font-size: small;">Thank you for all your support!</span></span></p>
