MAG - Cycle Vietnam to Cambodia · 25 February 2010 ·

Every single day, 17 people are killed or injured because of landmines and other explosive weapons. Almost half of all civilian casualties are children. MAG finds and destroys these weapons to save lives and rebuild futures; helping people to grow crops, attend school and build homes.

Story

In late Feb/early March 2010, I will be cycling from Ho Chi Minh City in Vietnam to the Angkor temples in Cambodia, a distance of approximately 460km over 5 rather full days! As well as being a great adventure, I am raising money for the Mines Advisory Group (MAG), a charity dedicated to the clearance of landmines around the world. Having visited both Vietnam and Cambodia on my travels, I have seen the devastation that landmines cause and the large numbers of victims claimed even today. It truly is one of the saddest things I have ever seen. 

 

Thank you for visiting my Just Giving page and please feel free to sponsor me as much or as little as you can afford. I promise to keep you updated with my training and progress!
