My story

 

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Please sponsor me for the CARA Cycle Challenge  and thereby support the great work of the Council for Assisting Refugee Academics - I am the Hon. Treasurer. Please visit the CARA website to find out more about a charitable organisation founded in 1933.The challenge is to cycle in 1 day from the University of Cambridge to the School of Oriental and African Studiers in London, with the occasional pit stop for reviving the spirits and under- used muscles. 

Your support, however modest, will be much appreciated by both CARA and myself. You will receive  details of  my ride in due course. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you want more information about the Cycle Challenge or CARA. In anticipation, many thanks for supporting my cycling adventure.  

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Council for Assisting Refugee Academics gets your money faster and, if you’re a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation.

So please sponsor me now!
