TEAM BOC - LONDON - PARIS BY BIKE (YES, BY BIKE!)

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page. This year we have decided to do something challenging.  We have taken the opportunity to help people in some of the poorest communities, by joining Christian Aid in their London - Paris bicycle ride.

Between 23 & 27th July 2008 we will make the 300mile journey covering distances of up to 80 miles per day.  Many of us have not been on a bike since our teenage years, which makes the task somewhat daunting.

We would like to ask friends, family and colleagues to help us to make a real difference to people who struggle to survive day-to-day.  YOU can help us by giving generously!

If you are a UK tax payer, you can check the Gift Aid box.  This means that Christian Aid will reclaim 28p for every £1 donated.

In addition, we will secure match funding from BOC through the Matched Giving Scheme.

Many Thanks for your support.  We can make a difference with your help.

Donating through this site is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to sponsor me: Christian Aid will receive your money faster and, if you are a UK taxpayer, an extra 28% in tax will be added to your gift at no cost to you.
