Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>In November I'll cycle 264 miles across Death Valley: canyons, mountains (MOUNTAINS!!), and desert to raise funds for Mines Advisory Group (MAG).</p> <p>MAG is a neutral and impartial humanitarian organisation, working in current and former conflict zones to reduce the threat of death and injury from remnants of conflict.</p> <p>These include anti-personnel and anti-vehicle landmines, as well as rockets, missiles, mortars, grenades, ammunition, small arms and light weapons.</p> <p>This will be a long, hard slog and your&nbsp;help will keep me going/make the pain worthwhile! I really appreciate anything you can give to help me achieve my target.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.and the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.</p> <p>So please dig deep and donate now.</p> <p>Joan</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
