My story
Thank you for visiting my page - I have decided so set myself a bigger than ever challenge of cycling approx 300 miles from the centre of London to Paris in 3 days and then the following day complete the Paris marathon (27 miles) in under 3 hours 30 mins. Training has commenced and will continue right up until we set off from London on Thursday 12th April 2012.
I am a trustee for Child-Safe and have supported them since 2002 when I was 15 and we cycled from Bristol to Lands End over a weekend. Since then I have helped to raise over £50,000 for the charity. They are a unique charity on a global scale and the work they do to prevent child abuse in the travel sector quite often goes unnoticed. I can however assure you it is an ever present problem across the world and the work that Chris Gould and the charity do is only the crucial. I therefore ask you to dig very deep and appreciate that I am going to endure a serious amount of pain over four days.
Thank you kindly!
What is Child-Safe?
- Child-Safe is the only charity specialising solely in the safeguarding and prevention of abuse of children and young people engaged in activities within the Youth Travel Sector.
How is Child-Safe different?
- There are many charities dedicated to children’s welfare and safety, most of these are concerned with dealing with the after effects of abuse.
· Our aim is ‘to safeguard and prevent the abuse of children and young people away from home’.
What do we do?
- Based at Avon and Somerset Constabulary HQ, a small team of charity staff and volunteers provide consultancy, training, advice, guidance and support to a range of organisations and individuals within the Youth Travel sector.
- We rely upon sponsorship, donations and fund raising events to support our efforts to sustain the charity and to make this a safer world for children.
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
