Thank You for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

At the end of May this year I will be cycling from John O'Groats to Land's End, camping along the way.  With close on a thousand miles, far too many hills to mention and a possible high percentage of headwind, I could be in for a tough ride.  So to help me on my way and make it all worthwhile, please help me to raise money for the Afghan Appeal Fund.

The Afghan Appeal Fund (AAF) is run on a voluntary basis by family and friends of British soldiers and aims to raise awareness of the plight of the people of Afghanistan, particularly the children, and raise money to help them. 

The charity has gone from strength to strength, and work has begun on three more school projects in Afghanistan this year.  Two new village primary schools are being constructed in Nuristan and Bamyan provinces and a school in Helmand province is being reconstructed.

Educating the children of Afghanistan helps to promote peace and stability, particularly in the more remote regions – it is key to the hearts and minds campaign and to the rebuilding of the country.  Afghanistan has been destroyed by successive wars, and education is the first step towards a brighter future.

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.

So please, please dig deep and donate now.

Thank You for your support.
