My story

 

Thanks for visiting our fundraising page.

We will be leaving Waternish on the Isle of Skye on Saturday 25th July 2009 to cycle the 650 miles down to Marlow in Buckinghamshire arriving on Saturday 1st August 2009. Most of us are not long distance cyclists so this will be a real challenge.

Please support us on this journey down the country so that we can raise £30,000 to build two volunteers bungalows at the Hands Across the Water orphanage in Takua Pa, Thailand. This will enable volunteers to live actually onsite at the orphanage so that the 60 beautiful children there will get the best possible care - they deserve it!

For more details about the charity please log on to www.handsacrossthewater.org.uk or watch a slideshow of our progress over the past 4 years at www.youtube.com/watch?v=qgBc4HEZgIM

Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It’s also the most efficient way to sponsor us: Hands Across the Water 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.

So please sponsor us now!
