My story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page for Send a Cow.

One crazy idea. To ride motorbikes from Hereford, down the west of Africa to Cape Town and return via the east of Africa through the middle east back to Hereford.

Two crazy people. Darren Moody and Russell Williams will ride their BMW F650 GS Dakar motorbikes from their home city of Hereford.

Six crazy months. Travelling through 23 African countries meeting amazing people and seeing some awesome sights. Visiting a few friends on the way and stopping off at a few Send a Cow projects.

25,000 crazy miles. With many pit stops, possibly a few breakdowns, hopefully even fewer falling off's, and a few pairs of well worn pants!

So please help us to raise lots of cash for this great Christian charity who bring hope as well as sustainability to impoverished rural communities. Check out www.sendacow.org.uk

My charity

Send a Cow

Send a Cow

Charity Registration No. 299717

Send a Cow helps African farmers grow enough food to feed their families, sell their produce and develop small businesses that last. We do this by providing training, livestock, seeds and ongoing support; and by helping families make the most of the land and resources they already have. As a result, families are happier and healthier, children are educated, homes are improved. In turn, these families then pass on young livestock, seeds or training to others. And so on. And so on. This ‘pass on’ principle not only builds stronger communities, it allows us to help even more people to develop skills, confidence and self respect. The ‘can do will do’ attitude of Send a Cow is born out of our faming roots and our Christian faith. Working hand in hand with African farmers for over 20 years, we prove that farming in Africa works.
