Madeleine was abducted on May 3rd while on holiday with her family in Portugal. You can find details of how to help in the search for Madeleine by visiting the website given below.

I am a parent myself, however I cannot imagine what it must be like to lose a child through an incurable life-threatening illness. Make-A-Wish Foundation® does not provide miracles for these children, however it does provide some relief and happiness to these children.

In July 2007 I plan to ride the last 1200km of the Tour de France route in 7 days. These include the first three days riding in the high mountains of the Pyrenees. Considering I have never riden any more than 160km in one day this will be a tough 7 days, however the bravery of these children will make the pain of this ride insignificant. Please support my efforts by sponsoring me for my challenge.

Please dig deep, sponsor me online and make their lives a bit brighter, even for a little while.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Make-A-Wish Foundation UK will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.
