My story

 

Thanks for visiting my fundraising page!

I did it! I left Leighton Buzzard, Bedfordshire on April 7th and arrived in Paignton, Devon on April 9th. I ended up cycling 220 miles. At times it was a real, hard slog but I got to see the lovely English countryside and pass through some quaint villages along the way.

The reason for this sponsored bike ride was, and still is, to raise as much money as I can for a fantastic and dedicated charity called RIPPLE Africa. Please help by sponsoring me.

With your help, your donation can:

- pay for toys, books, pencils, paints etc. in the nursery schools where resources are very limited. Just £5 will pay for a toy and £100 will pay for a set of locally made wooden toys.

- pay for one desk at a cost of £20 (100 desks are needed for a new secondary school).

- help the running costs of the library and help supply the library with much needed books.

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

If you want to find out more what this fantastic charity are doing then please visit their website: www.rippleafrica.org

A -felt thanks!
