Our personal message:

Hello friends, family and all those in between, 


After this job, its time to do something different for a while, like an adventure in India. In November this year I shall be cycling 400km in 5 days across India from Kochi to Kodiakanal in Kerala to raise money for International Childcare Trust. The charity helps malnourished, disadvantaged children in the developing world with projects in countries from Kenya to India to Cambodia.


These are the details of where your sponsored pledge will go:

£5 will pay for tetanus vaccinations for 20 kids.

£14 will provide 2 new desks to go into one of the classrooms.

£35 would help to provide bursaries for deprived young people looking for options for the future. They can benefit from skills training in cookery, sewing, mechanics, plumbing, English and computers

£40 will enable an orphaned child to buy a school uniform and shoes so they can enrol in primary school. In turn, an education will help them restart their lives.

£72 will protect a child from abuse and exploitation and offer traumatised children counselling and confidence building support.  

By sponsoring me for Cycle India you will change lives. I will actually be seeing for my own eyes where this money is going, so your money will basically be delivered by hand. Nice thought eh?

Thank you for visiting my fundraising page. Please get clicking and start feeling good! 

All my Love

Matt XXXX

I will be updating my blog throughout the planning, training and eventual expedition stages of the adventiure on http://matttinsley.blogspot.com/
