Most people with children(or grandchildren) will surely have watched Toy Story and will recall Buzz Lightyear's rallying call 'To infinity and beyond'. Well, the intention is a mite less fantasy but nevertheless demanding. Walkers and cyclists who travel from Lands End to John O'Groats are known as 'End to Enders'. In a modified version of Buzz's words, we are aiming to go 'To the Ends and beyond' or, per Captain Kirk, 'To go where no man (or woman) has gone before' (we think). That is a sponsored trans-British Isles expedition from south to north without using any motorised form of transport - from the Scilly Isles to the Shetland Isles by kayak, bicycle and on foot.
The event will take place in late May and June 2009 and will be supported by the Rotary Club of Banbury.
The funds raised will be in aid of Leonard Cheshire Disability's (LCD) 'School 4 All in Africa' project. Following its success in Kenya, LCD is investing to materially increase the availability and quality of access for disabled children to education within schools.
