Story

Hello Everybody

Thank you for visiting our Sponsorship page.

We are asking you to please donate generously to Computer Aid International. Every £ counts!!

Between the 2 of us, we need to raise £5000

This will then go to Computer Aid International who provide high-quality, professionally refurbished computers for reuse in education, health and not-for-profit organisations in developing countries. Computer Aid has shipped over 90,000 PCs to where they are most needed in more than 100 countries.

To raise money we thought it would be a good idea to cycle around CUBA. It will take 6 days to complete, cycling through the countryside, mountains and coastlines, and it will also include a visit to one of the schools which has benefited from the charity.

Brett is an enthusiastic, but unfit sportsman, who finally bought a bike 2 weeks ago and started training by cycling to work and back - 8 miles each way.

Training is tough through the winter days and nights, and he will have to make many sacrifices to pull this off, including giving up Magners and missing Brighton games - so please sponsor him in his quest for glory!

Megan at least owns a bike but hasn't ridden it in a while! She is hoping the promise of a Cuba Libre and  mojito at the end of the ride will spur her through... that and the knowledge that she will have supplied 20 computers to a school in Cuba.  Please get behind us... it is a great cause!!

Thank You for Sponsoring Us x x
