My story

 
Thanks for visiting my fundraising page.

Between May 2nd and May 4th 2009 I am riding the Coast to Coast route (Whitehaven to Sunderland), that is 135 miles but worse 13,600 ft of climbing. All the costs are paid so every pound you give goes straight to Christians Against Poverty (with added gift aid).

Christians Against Poverty offer the very best help with debt (practical and counselling) that is available. Supporting them is a great way to help people who have huge problems and give them new life and hope.

We are running their CAP Money course locally (Thrapston and raunds so far), that provides a simple system to help everyone get control of their money. That course is provided free by Christians Against Poverty so these donations also help them with this task which is making a huge difference for people who are struggling in our communities.

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Christians Against Poverty 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!
