Hello everybody.
Starting on Friday 11th September 2009, we will be cycling from Auckland to Christchurch in an attempt to raise money for the Sick Kids Friends Foundation, a great Scottish charity who's details are provided on the page. The cycle is around 1200km long (wow) and should take around 10-12 days to complete. Given that neither of us are experienced cyclists this is going to be a huge challenge for us, but one that we are both very excited about!
We understand that a lot of us dont have much spare cash at the moment but please sponsor us whatever you can, no matter how small the donation it will definitely make a big difference to this fantastic charity. Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Edinburgh Sick Kids Friends Foundation 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.
Thanks to everybody who has donated so far, it really is going to make the cycle a lot easier knowing that we have raised such a great sum of cash for Sick Kids. You can keep up to date with our progress by visiting our cycle diary at:
