My story
Beyond the Bike is not about the bike...
It is a charity tandem cycle journey from South Africa to London, raising money for Beyond Ourselves, & three other charities Right to Sight, Alive & Kicking & UNICEF, all doing amazing things in the world's poorest region and all focused on sustainability.
Beyond Ourselves is the primary partner of Beyond the Bike, It is helping my school, Cranleigh in the UK, build a partnership with Kawama community school in the Copperbelt region of Zambia. Nearly 40 students from Cranleigh have already visited on two seperate trips where we've been helping local volunteers to build their first classrooms. Pastor Cehpas, in the photos runs the community school. Amazingly, £30k is enough to build a basic school for more than 200 kids.
Right to Sight are making progress in meeting their goal of eradicating preventable blindness in Africa. £20 is the cost of one cataract operation in Africa. ‘Stoking’ a tandem is one key bit of cardiovascular exercise that blind people can participate in but it would be cool if they could ride on the front too!
Alive and Kicking are a social enterprise that manufactures sports balls in Zambia & Kenya for children to play and creates jobs for adults. BtB is helping to provide funding to start a new factory in West Africa and will also be donating balls to the Beyond Ourselves schools in Zambia.
UNICEF is the world's leading organisation protecting the rights of children and young people. In particular, Beyond the bike is raising money for the legacy charity of the London Olympics which is working with UNICEF's sport for development programmes across the continent.
Please take a look at my website www.beyondthebike.org for more detail. And if you fancy coming along for a ride, there a still a few legs in Northern Europe free....
