Vietnam-Cambodia Cycle Challenge · 5 February 2015 to 15 February 2015 ·

Every single day, 15 people are killed or injured because of landmines and other explosive weapons. Almost half of all civilian casualties are children. MAG finds and destroys these weapons to save lives and rebuild futures; helping people to grow crops, attend school and build homes.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my Just Giving page where I will attempt to cycle 400km across Vietnam and Cambodia to raise money of behalf of the charity MAG (Mines Advisory Group).

There are 2 reasons why this will be challenging.......

1. I am unift.

2. I once got sunburnt in February, it was in Birmingham...... Therefore 30 degree heat in high humidity should be interesting!

If you have 5 minutes to spare I would be grateful if you visit  www.maginternational.org to see how they use the monies that you pledge and how it will make a difference in the communities it serves.

MAG takes a humanitarian approach to landmine action. This means that they do not focus on metrics such as land area cleared or numbers of landmines removed. Instead, they focus on the impact of their work on local communities. This approach recognises that although the number of landmines in an area may be small, the effect on a community can be crippling. Targets are therefore determined locally, in response to liaison with affected communities, and local authorities .

Thanks

Nick
