Story

I'm raising money to support Re-Cycle. A great charity who send unwanted and unused bikes out to Africa where they are fundamental in helping children get to school, nurses get to patients in real need and make the long journeys for food and water tolerable.

 

You can all relate to this charity as at some stage everyone has had a bike that just sits in the shed all year with no use. 

 

In November I will be travelling out to Nairobi to complete a 400km cycle ride to Mt. Kilimanjaro. I will also get a chance to see first hand the great work this charity is doing.

 

You money will help Re-Cycle collect and ship bike to those that really need it so please give generously!

About the charity

We collect used bicycles in the UK and we ship them, in containers, to people who need them in Africa. Some people living in rural African communities walk miles everyday to reach water, school, work or healthcare. Bikes are a sustainable mode of transport and help change lives for many families.
