Hi,
Thanks so much for visiting my Just Giving page. On Saturday 5th December I am going to do possibly the most stupid painful and brave thing of my life. I am going to attempt to cycle to Copenhagen. This is approximately 1000 miles, or on average 83.3 miles a day, which is almost like running a marathon every day for 12 days.I will be very grateful for any support you can give me. You can help me along the road in two ways:
1. Donate ten minutes of you time to learning about climate change from respected scientific sources (see below)
2. Donate to Enham on this page, its a great charity helping with the disabled, where my younger brother Svend lives.
You can read all about Enham on www.enham.org.uk
If the stupidity/bravery of all this encourages you to donate more then please bear the following in mind;
Three months ago I had a second operation on my left knee. Three weeks ago I didn't own a bike. Two weeks and six days ago I fell off my new bike within five minutes of our first outing.
With Love and Thanks,
Jez
