On December 31st we'll be setting out on a journey across Southern India, behind the wheel of a clapped-out old rickshaw. During eight days we will cover over 1,000km, while negotiating rough terrain, changeable weather and trying to navigate our temperamental rickshaw – finishing our journey in Kanyakumari, the southernmost point of India.
Are we a teeny bit insane? Yes
Is our rickshaw likely to break down most days? Yes, probably
Have either of us ever changed a tyre before? Er, no
Are we going to do it anyway? DEFINITELY!
So why should you sponsor us?
Every penny we raise will go towards Reaching The Unreached. It is a UK registered charity that works with orphaned children and poor villages in Southern India. The charity runs immunisation programmes and dental checks, provides safe water wells, supports homeless children – and much more. Check out the website at: www.rtu.org.uk
We hugely appreciate anything that you can give. Thank you so much!
Heather and Kate
