The Trust works with the people of South Africa to redress the many inequalities and injustices that remain as a result of apartheid. It supports community-based initiatives focusing on education, training and welfare in places of great disadvantage.

Story

Hello and welcome to my fundraising page.

As you probably know by now in June I will be cycling 874 miles in 6 daysfrom Lands End to John O'Groats in order to raise money and awareness for the Bishop Simeon Trust (there is a bit more about the charity and the work they do on the  left of this page)

Most of you who know me will probably have already worked out that I am a little bit crazy, but this is mad even by my standards - basically we will be riding about 150 miles a day along the length of the whole country....

Day 1 - Sunday 21 June:      Land's End to Taunton           (149 miles)
Day 2 - Monday 22 June:     Taunton to Telford                 (146 miles)
Day 3 - Tuesday 23 June:    Telford to Warton                  (126 miles)
Day 4 - Wed 24 June:          Warton to Lanark                   (151 miles)
Day 5 - Thursday 25 June:   Lanark to Aviemore               (152 miles)
Day 6 - Friday 26 June:       Aviemore to John O'Groats     (148 miles)

Sounds like fun I know! But here is the good bit, the charity have persuaded Sporting Bet to sponsor the event and they are supplying the support vehicle and accomodation on the route so every penny you pledge - and the tax back from the government if you do it on this site, will go direct to the charity!

If you want more info about the ride and how the money raised will be used, please follow the link below...

Otherwise, thank you in advance for your donation - trust me every little helps and I will need all the motivation I can get by about day two!

There is some blurb below about how to donate....
