Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

This challenge is 3 guys cycling from Rochdale to Liverpool where they will take the ferry to the Isle of Man, kindly sponsored by the Isle of Man Steam Packet Company (www.steam-packet.com). They will complete 10 laps of the TT course (37.3 miles per lap), then cycle back to Rochdale from Liverpool. The distance is approximaely 450 miles. This will enable the building of a school for 30 homeless children in Kathmandu Nepal. Kamal and his brother "adopted" fifteen children each. When Kamal's brother suddenly died, undetered Kamal "adopted" them. His desire is to provide an education for them and by your giving his dream will be realised with the building of the school house. 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 dig deep and donate now.
