Raising money for

War Child

Charity Registration No. 1071659

War Child is an international child protection agency that works with the most marginalised children - child soldiers, street kids and children in prison - in Iraq, Afghanistan, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda. War Child believes it is unacceptable that children continue to be victims of war. In the last decade alone 1.5 million children have died in wars. Four million have been disabled and a further 10 million traumatised. We provide vital, on the ground support programmes in each of the conflict zones we work in but also lobby politicians and governments to ensure our cause and the rights of children affected by war remains high on the public and political agendas. This approach allows us to ensure every pound we receive goes as far as possible - not only to the crucial projects in the field, but to ensuring children caught up in conflict, no matter where they may be, have a chance to be protected. We work where other agencies do not, reaching the most at risk children in the most dangerous war zones and your support means we can continue to do so. War Child looks forward to a world in which war is not prosecuted on children.

My story

Over the course of 12 days, we're cycling the 950+ miles from Land's End to John O'Groats starting on July 5th. Visit our website at www.epicbikeride.co.uk for more information!

This is the War Child fundraising page. We're hoping to raise £500 for War Child and £500 for Sustrans. You can donate to Sustrans by accessing www.justgiving.com/lejog09sustrans

Here's a bit of info about JustGiving, if you haven't used it before:

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