My story

In September 2008 I'll be taking part in 'Down Right Kenya', an overland bicycle rally from England to Kenya. The ride will probably take between 4 and 6 months to complete, covering over 6,000 miles of largely inhospitable terrain.

The ride is totally unsupported, so we'll get very lost; but once we arrive we'll be able to see the fantastic work that this charity undertakes and help out with the projects. Importantly, every penny raised for HSK will go to build schools in rural Kenya; the ride itself is financed from our own pockets.

Along the way, we'll be giving presentations at schools and institutions where we can raise awareness and continue fundraising. Please do follow our progress online!

The impact of your donations is enormous in a country that - now more than ever - needs support.

Thanks so much for your help.
