My story

 
Hi there, thank you for visiting my fundraising page.

In October 2008 I will be joining a group of intrepid osteopaths who are going to attempt to ride 1300km in 10 days through northern India to raise money for the Foundation for Paediatric Osteopathy. To make things more interesting we will be riding on 500cc Royal Enfield Bullets ( and yes, the controls are all on opposite sides to modern bikes). Much of the travel is through the Himalayas including a really tough 275km ride through the 10,000ft Jalori pass, in one day, with a very brave pillion passenger!

Please sponsor me now, the proceeds will go to a fantastic charity that does really good work.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me. The Foundation for Paediatric Osteopathy 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.

Many thanks for your support.
